Wiley’s First Solo Exhibition
Kehinde Wiley (23 November 2002-12 January 2003).
Color illus. on recto, details on verso. Pictorial postcard. Hartford, CT: Real Art Ways, 2002.
Rare exhibition postcard for Wiley’s very first solo show, held at Real Art Ways in Hartford. The show, presenting his portraits, was curated by Steven Holmes. The recto bears an illustration of the artist’s The Conspicuous Fraud Series (2001).
Fine. We could not find any mention of this exhibit in the lists maintained by the artist’s main galleries.
❧ See the New York Times article “Embracing the Offbeat in a Corner of Hartford” (24 Nov. 2002) about Real Art Ways (accessed online 20 Feb. 2022)—“The center is also currently exhibiting the work of Kehinde Wiley, a painter who combines elements of hip-hop culture with an old master’s influence to produce pieces examining black masculinity.”.
