This work is part of a series that Kehinde Wiley developed while in quarantine at @blackrocksenegal the artist compound and residency program he founded in 2019 on the coast of Dakar.

Kehinde Wiley Instagram - A Maze of Power, featuring a series of portraits of African heads of state that I began working on in 2012. I designed these portraits to reflect the distinctive cultural elements of each State, thus highlighting the immense diversity of the African continent, and reveal the identity of each individual through the double prism of the artist and the model. 

The compositions allude to military portraiture of Britain and France during the periods in which African colonization was rampant. The history of power in Western Europe and the history of painting are so closely tied. Using this vocabulary of power, a conversation opened up around the history of portraiture in Western Europe and then turned more specifically to each head of State and how they want to be represented. I wanted to place Blackness and Africa at the intersection of this question about the interrogation of power in picture making.

These paintings lay bare the contours of the ego, the diversity of possibilities in terms of taste and discernment, as well as the different communication strategies related to the construction of an image, both personal and public.

Kehinde Wiley Instagram - My solo exhibition HAVANA opens tomorrow at Sean Kelly, New York! There will be an opening reception on Thursday, April 27 from 6-8pm.

The exhibition features new paintings, works on paper, and a three-channel film, all inspired by my focus on the evolution of Black culture globally. The body of work explores the phenomenon of the carnivalesque in Western culture, referencing artists such as Toulouse-Lautrec, Picasso, Calder, and Western European depictions of the carnivalesque, the circus, and the power of street performance and dance.

The artworks in the exhibition create a timeline in which political realities, economic hardship, artistic freedom, and the thirst for self-discovery become the catalyst for exploring a nation and culture through painting. The film, installed in the lower gallery, features interviews and performances by members of Races Profundas, giving insight into the journey through time of Cuba's rich cultural history. Through this exhibition, I seek to amplify Afro-Caribbean survival strategies and celebrates the youth, vibrancy, and broader evolution of Black culture. #kehindewiley @seankellygallery

Kehinde Wiley Instagram - Kehinde Wiley, ā€œGo,ā€ 2020. Stained glass with aluminum frame, gypsum molding, steel structure, and LED light panel.

Artist Kehinde Wiley’s site-specific stained-glass installation restages the grandeur of 18th century European ceiling frescoes. Working through the modern Black body, the artist reimagines breakdance at the intersection of the epic and the intimate to offer a nuanced perspective on art history and the broader evolution of culture.

On view beginning January 1, 2021 at Moynihan Train Hall 33rd Street Midblock Entrance Hall, New York.

Kehinde Wiley - 46.2K Likes - A Maze of Power, featuring a series of portraits of African heads of state that I began working on in 2012. I designed these portraits to reflect the distinctive cultural elements of each State, thus highlighting the immense diversity of the African continent, and reveal the identity of each individual through the double prism of the artist and the model. 

The compositions allude to military portraiture of Britain and France during the periods in which African colonization was rampant. The history of power in Western Europe and the history of painting are so closely tied. Using this vocabulary of power, a conversation opened up around the history of portraiture in Western Europe and then turned more specifically to each head of State and how they want to be represented. I wanted to place Blackness and Africa at the intersection of this question about the interrogation of power in picture making.

These paintings lay bare the contours of the ego, the diversity of possibilities in terms of taste and discernment, as well as the different communication strategies related to the construction of an image, both personal and public.

Kehinde Wiley - 38.8K Likes - My solo exhibition HAVANA opens tomorrow at Sean Kelly, New York! There will be an opening reception on Thursday, April 27 from 6-8pm.

The exhibition features new paintings, works on paper, and a three-channel film, all inspired by my focus on the evolution of Black culture globally. The body of work explores the phenomenon of the carnivalesque in Western culture, referencing artists such as Toulouse-Lautrec, Picasso, Calder, and Western European depictions of the carnivalesque, the circus, and the power of street performance and dance.

The artworks in the exhibition create a timeline in which political realities, economic hardship, artistic freedom, and the thirst for self-discovery become the catalyst for exploring a nation and culture through painting. The film, installed in the lower gallery, features interviews and performances by members of Races Profundas, giving insight into the journey through time of Cuba's rich cultural history. Through this exhibition, I seek to amplify Afro-Caribbean survival strategies and celebrates the youth, vibrancy, and broader evolution of Black culture. #kehindewiley @seankellygallery

Kehinde Wiley - 34.5K Likes - Kehinde Wiley, ā€œGo,ā€ 2020. Stained glass with aluminum frame, gypsum molding, steel structure, and LED light panel.

Artist Kehinde Wiley’s site-specific stained-glass installation restages the grandeur of 18th century European ceiling frescoes. Working through the modern Black body, the artist reimagines breakdance at the intersection of the epic and the intimate to offer a nuanced perspective on art history and the broader evolution of culture.

On view beginning January 1, 2021 at Moynihan Train Hall 33rd Street Midblock Entrance Hall, New York.
