With Down, Brooklyn based Kehinde Wiley has accomplished a monumental new body of work, which stand as defining moment in the artist’s career and testament to true mastery of craft. The focal point of the exhibit are seven new oil paintings (spanning up to twenty five feet in length), which make specific references to works of European sculpture and painting from both the Renaissance and later neoclassical figurative periods....visit The Art Collectors for the full review and extensive photo recap.
Fantastic exhibit. Great contrast in his colors and the emotions speak aloud.
