Kehinde Wiley

Kehinde Wiley combines different art styles in order to show the common black man in a position of power. For many centuries paintings of people have mostly consisted of white males mostly and pictures of blacks were not common. This artist crosses racial borders and strives to display a scene thats not so common, art that shows the Black community as a triumphant race.

His work is a new direction compared to the traditional white males that were typically painted back in the day.
