Product Description
Kehinde Wileys acclaimed World Stage series inserts into the language of old master portraiture the very ethnicities and ethnic iconography that western art has most excluded from it or that western art has portrayed solely in colonial Orientalist terms. Among the countries and continents he has previously depicted in this ambitious traveling epic are Brazil Africa China India and Sri Lanka. The rhetoric of Wileys paintings is powerful in its compositional candor color palette and playfulness with constructions of visual meaning as Paul D. Miller DJ Spooky notes Wileys canvas surfaces are a mirror reflection of Americas unceasing search for new meanings from the ruins of the Old World of Europe and Africa. This volume includes a selection of new World Stage portraits focusing on contemporary youth from JewishEthiopianIsraeli JewishIsraeli and ArabIsraeli communities. show more
