FRANÇAIS app de traduction à gauche

I believe artists will pay a major role in getting humanity through not only the climate crisis but the massive human displacement and homelessness crisis. Leave it to Hollywood to address an issue with panache! November 6th 2021 celebrities gathered for the LACMA ART+FILM GALA sponsored by GUCCI

Kehinde Wiley made a name for himself for his moving portraits emerging from floral patterns. Below left, his famous portrait of President Barack Obama.

Amy Sherald is known for her opposite perspective where her subjects pop out of a background of rich flat colour. Below right, her famous portrait of First Lady Michelle Obama.


I love both these stunning portraits! 

Congratulations to both for their illustrious accomplishments!
