Kehinde Wiley exhibit uses historic icons to expose systemic violence against Black people

Kehinde Wiley is best known for his distinctive presidential portrait of Barack Obama. But Wiley has spent most of his career painting vibrant portrayals of everyday Black men and women. A new exhibition of his work focuses on grief and mourning and also asks whose lives have value. Jeffrey Brown sat down with Wiley for our arts and culture series, CANVAS. Correction: Kehinde Wiley was not the first Black painter to paint a presidential portrait. Simmie Knox was, when he painted former President Bill Clinton for the White House in 2000. We regret the error.
