You recognize the absence of yourself but you don't recognize the absence of me. Perfect

She worked on that line for 6 months as a grant application.

Beautiful. Thanks for this, The New Yorker.

Magnificent artists.

@BlueBaron3339 Год назад

What an "odd" question, "Will you ever paint white people?" I doubt that was asked of Caravagio, Da Vinci, Hans Holbein, Rembrandt, Whistler, etc. etc.

@chamade166 Год назад

Why paint racist white men? Honestly these people are famous because black people were oppressed.

Toni Morrison was asked this about her writing, too. Her response (which you can watch on RU-vid) is genius. an odd and insensitive question

@johnsmith1474 Год назад

White or Black the representations are pretty boring.

I am an artist and I've been asked that too by gallery owners and when I showed them some white people I painted in my portfolio - they were like, "Okay", but I still didn't pass their test.

Could you put Kehinde Wiley and Amy Sherald names in the description? Show some respect.

@bethrosenwasserphd3241 Год назад

New Yorker: why don’t you read comments. This one you can correct. Please honor and recognize the artists you interview by naming them in the description.

@marissalorenz2544 7 месяцев назад

They're still absent... @NewYorker ... please highlight the artists' names at least as prominently as that of the filmmaker.

I wish they would’ve chosen a different artist for Michelle Obama’s portrait. It is objectively not great, which is a shame because President Obama’s portrait is so beautiful.

@Gulfstreams Год назад

Your are wrong.

@neecywatson8250 Год назад

That’s your opinion but I felt the same way compared to Obama’s portrait. I guess it’s not our likable style. But after looking at it again, it’s the background is too light, maybe a forest green would have bought it out more.
