At least in that picture the gigantic wiggler is on his left temple (not very well disguised as a vein).

And in that resolution it appears that the whole thing is a cheap and tacky Photoshop job, not a painting.

Exactly - no secret! He claims the inclusion of spwrm in portraits is “poking fun at the highly charged masculinity and propagation of gendered identity that are involved in the Western tradition of portraiture.” Hannity is lame again!

It is harder to see without lightening the section but once it is seen you can easily see it in the original and on numerous leaves.

Yes, after Photoshop it looks like a sperm.

A post at Reddit has linked the artist to the Spirit Cooker, Marina Abramovic:

No. In the original it looks that way, its just easier to see when the area is windowed properly.

Why would you want to fight this battle. The artist puts sperm in most of his paintings. A cursory review of articles about him provides many examples:

https://www.villagevoice.com/2015/03/11/what-to-make-of-kehinde-wileys-pervy-brooklyn-museum-retrospective/

What Wiley and his subjects do behind the scenes may be none of our business, but his paintings kiss and tell. Saint Andrew grinds his crotch against a wooden cross, and in case we don’t quite get it, Wiley has painted free-floating spermatozoa across the canvas. The same goes for the bear of a fellow in Napoleon Leading the Army Over the Alps, which could be subtitled “(Through a Light Ejaculate Mist).” And if the painted tadpoles aren’t sufficiently suggestive, several of the gilded frames contain sperm reliefs of their own. (Talk about painting outside the lines.)

https://mrsawyersopus.wordpress.com/2010/10/22/sexuality-and-race-the-art-of-kehinde-wiley/

To the naked eye this simply a reimaging of David’s image with a black man. The main difference is the main character and the decorative wall paper background. What isn’t as obvious are the dozens of little sperm cells that float around the canvas helping to make up the decorative almost Rococo-esque background.

Thanks for your summary!

That IS without question, IS proof positive that Obama is racist because you KNOW without one scintilla of doubt he checked out this guys paintings beforehand. This is a former US President APPROVING of racism and terrorism.

Love it.

Cultural Appropriation.

Two words together that we had not seen up to a few years ago.

Agreed. Much like "his husband"...

Or one of a lesbian couple referring to the other as her husband or her wife!
