But is it art?



Not a surprise to those paying attention, but worth reading for anyone still wondering what kind of artist Hunter Biden might be.


Comer Statement on Interview with Hunter Biden’s Art Gallerist

WASHINGTON—House Committee on Oversight and Accountability Chairman James Comer (R-Ky.) issued the following statement on the committee’s transcribed interview with Georges Bergès, Hunter Biden’s art gallerist:

“The Biden White House appears to have deceived the American people about facilitating an ethics agreement governing the sale of Hunter Biden’s art. Hunter Biden’s gallerist never had any communication with the White House about such an agreement to make sure there was any sort of ethics compliance at all, and he provided information to the committee revealing how Hunter Biden’s amateur art career is an ethics nightmare. The vast majority of Hunter Biden’s art has been purchased by Democrat donors, one of whom was appointed by President Biden to a prestigious commission after she purchased Hunter Biden’s art for tens of thousands of dollars shortly after Joe Biden’s inauguration. The White House has a lot of explaining to do about misleading the American people.”...

Big money Democrat donors advanced and purchased the majority of Hunter Biden’s art. Georges Bergès stated the majority of Hunter Biden’s art has been purchased by Democrat donors, including Kevin Morris and Elizabeth Hirsh Naftali.

WTF is a gallerist? English as she is fractured!

From White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki:

"all interactions regarding the selling of art and the setting of prices will be handled by a professional gallerist, adhering to the highest industry standards."

I don't have a lot of knowledge in this area, but would not be surprised if this was not setting the bar very high.

Is there anything the Bidens are involved with that isn't corrupt?

I am not an art critic but I looked at examples of Hunter Biden's work. It seemed competently done but nothing special. There appeared to be no 'thread' or 'period' in his work suggesting to me that the works had no underlying artistic motivation.

Jannie - I assume it's a facilitatorist of art purveyorment.

Sam - it's probably round about the height of the foot rail drinkers used to put one foot on when drinking at the bar of a pub. Maybe a little lower than that.

Tammly - nothing at all as far as I can see. They even profit from that doddery old chap who pretends to be US President.

DJ - I agree, there is something missing. To my eye it looks like AI art.
