In Conversation with Kehinde Wiley
Los Angeles–born and New York–based artist Kehinde Wiley has firmly situated himself within art history’s portrait painting tradition. Wiley rose to fame creating portraits of men, working exclusively with African Americans and men from around the world. While continuing his explorations of patronage and art history, Wiley has turned to African American women to reflect on black female stereotypes that surrounds their representation in art history.
