Los Angeles native and New York-based visual artist Kehinde Wiley has firmly situated himself within art history's portrait painting tradition. As a contemporary descendent of a long line of portraitists -- including Reynolds, Gainsborough, Titian, Ingres, and others -- Wiley engages the signs and visual rhetoric of the heroic, powerful, majestic, and sublime in his representation of urban black and brown men found throughout the world. By applying the visual vocabulary and conventions of glorification, wealth, prestige, and history to subject matter drawn from the urban fabric, Wiley makes his subjects and their stylistic references juxtaposed inversions of each other, imbuing his images with ambiguity and provocative perplexity.
Kehinde Wiley received his MFA from Yale University in 2001. Shortly after, he became an artist-in-residence at the Studio Museum in Harlem. He is represented by Deitch Projects, New York, NY; Rhona Hoffman Gallery, Chicago, IL; and Roberts and Tilton, Los Angeles, CA. His work has been exhibited internationally and is in the permanent collections of many museums, including the Brooklyn Museum, New York, NY; the Miami Art Museum, Miami, FL; and the Detroit Institute of Arts, Detroit, MI.
