Art advice for the Obamas
Waaaaay back I gave the Obamas art advice for the White House walls. They essentially ignored me.
Maybe it is because Cuban-Americans are the only Latino/Hispanics who overwhelmingly vote Republican (in the 90s percentwise).

Here's what some other folks think the Obamas should acquire for the White House walls.
I still think that my recommendation is the best; the most plebeian and the clearest and closest to the ground and what I think the new White House tenants need to bring to the White House walls.
What art or artist do you think that the Obamas should acquire? Tell me in the comments.

The DC area has such a large number of great artists, it's tough to narrow it down. I'd love to see them focus on a great deal of emerging art. Artists that are fresh out of the studio with only a show or two under their belts. Supporting creativity not just investment. I'd like to see them art that they buy because they like the work.

Raymond Saunders would get my vote for an artist whose work belongs, and would look great, in the White House. The Chrysler Museum owns one of the best Saunders, and I wish they would do a retrospective while he is still living.
