Whether you’re black or white, bad art is still bad, writes Madelineefry.
Sculptures that actually look like the subjects they’re meant to depict are so passe. Instead of representing the civil rights leader,depicts just his arms — and those of his wife, Coretta Scott King. The art piece is modeled after a photo of the couple embracing following King’s Nobel Peace Prize win.Words really do fail. The sculpture is either a big nothing or, as some pointed out, something not appropriate for all audiences.
Please read my other tweets about the sculpture—but here is another angle and the photo of the two “The Embrace” is based on. It’s when MLK Jr. found out he won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1964.
