Obama's New Official Portrait Appears To Feature A Sperm Cell On The Side Of His Face

[Steve_McGarrett]

Lol, I'm sure this is not the first time Obama has had sperm on his face. Anyone remember Larry Sinclair?

Not surprisingly, a quick search shows that Kehinde Wiley is a “black gay artist.” I dispute the “artist” part. He is an angry, hate-filled promoter of violence.

If you look closely at the portrait his left hand either has 5 fingers and a hidden thumb or the hand is painted backward as another right hand. Either way it seems a fitting reminder of his screwed up administration.

OK, I'll bite. Is that real?

 

[Silent Warrior]

Yep, look closely at the portrait.

Oh, come now.

The artist actually does paint sperm every where in his art

As you enter “A New Republic,” the exhibition of paintings, stained glass windows, sculptures and triptychs by Kehinde Wiley currently at the Seattle Art Museum, you are met by the direct and confident gaze of an African American man astride a rearing horse. The man wears a camouflage jacket and trousers, Timberland boots and a bandanna tied around his head; a heavy gold velvet cloak encircles his shoulders and billows dramatically in the air. Though he and his horse stand on a rocky crag, their backdrop is not of nature but of a red and gold wallpaper design such as one might find in a Victorian drawing room. Draw closer to the monumental portrait and you’ll see hundreds of seemingly randomly placed undulating sperm cells delicately filling the interstices between the golden arabesques of the backdrop. More swirling sperm fill the egg-shaped corner medallions on the huge and ornate gold frame in which the painting hangs, obviously and humorously reminding us that this painting is all about manliness and the power of the male gaze.

They should return such portrait and ask for the money back...

Enough to make your eyes roll so far back into your head that people will think you are looking for your brain....
