Obama’s Portrait Painter Has Long ‘Predatory,’ ‘Perverse’ History Of Hiding Sperm In Paintings
Dawson also pointed out that several of his pieces include sperm worked into their backgrounds or subjects. Wiley’s rendition of “St. Andrew,” for example, shows a black man grinding “his crotch against a wooden cross” with “free-floating spermatozoa” painted on the canvas, Dawson wrote. So, tell us Obama… you have so much in common with this pervert… what was it? The racism? The violence? The hatred of Christianity? Or was it the perversion itself? Just wondering. What a disgrace this is for Americans. It was already in stark contrast to portraits of previous presidents and now it is a sick, perverse joke that will reside among the past great leaders of America.

But art blog Mrs. Sawyer’s Opus pointed out that, “in the majority of the critiques of his work, nowhere is it discussed the blatant sexual and homoerotic overtones of Wiley’s images.”
