Poor little Hunter... juggling IRS / DOJ while prepping for his first art show...
you must be kidding me? Art? I thought he maxed out smoking crack and doing his own porn. Proof positive that the elites really think we're stupid... Hope he can do art behind bars.



Hunter Biden Prepares for His First Solo Art Show Amid Ongoing DOJ Investigation

The president-elect’s son revealed earlier this year that painting “is literally keeping me sane.”

BY EMILY KIRKPATRICK DECEMBER 16, 2020

Hunter Biden now has not only a Department of Justice investigation into his taxes to contend with, but also his first solo art show to prepare for next year.

The president-elect’s son is reportedly in the midst of signing a deal to be represented as an artist by Georges Bergès Gallery in New York City with a solo exhibition in the works for next year, according to sources who spoke to Page Six. In February, Biden first revealed his artistic aspirations to The New York Times, confessing during a conversation with the outlet that painting “is literally keeping me sane. For years I wouldn’t call myself an artist. Now I feel comfortable saying it.”

The venture capitalist turned artist, whose studio is in the pool house of his Hollywood Hills home, creates his work with a metal straw he uses to blow alcohol ink onto Japanese Yupo paper, creating abstract layers of colors and concentric circles. Painting “puts my energy toward something positive,” Biden explained. “It keeps me away from people and places where I shouldn’t be.” He also added, “The one thing I have left is my art. It’s the one thing they can’t take away from me or conflate with anything else.”

On top of achieving this major milestone in his art career, Biden also announced last week that his taxes are currently under investigation by the DOJ. And today, it was reported that Donald Trump is also considering appointing a special prosecutor to the case. But Biden doesn’t just have adversaries in the Republican Party. He’s also already made one very influential opponent in the art world—Jerry Saltz. The New York magazine critic dubbed his work, “Generic Post Zombie Formalism illustration” adding, “The background doesn’t always have to be white, you big baby.”

So Hunter has found another use for a straw?

Seriously, that passes for artwork? Or is it a way for him to launder money?

Some people just need a real job.




Politicians seem to have forgotten that they work for us, not the other way around.

Blowing paint through a straw onto paper. So thats "art", right?
I guess all those Renaissance masters had it wrong.

"Modern art" is quite awful. Truly.

And Vanity Fair is utterly shameless.

I remember our class doing that with tempera paint in about 4th grade.

He's a democrat elite. Just like Hillary, Proof that would convict any of us mortals will just be ignored by his friends in the legal system. I guess one of the lessons we've learned from the British Royalty and its American equivalent, the Gods among us can get away with about anything. I'd feel a lot better if Prince Andrew and Hillary were sharing a cell someplace. Don't worry about hanky panky, neither is attractive to the other.

I wonder how long that art critic will still be employed?

I remember going to carnivals as a kid where you could squirt out different colors of paint from a squeeze bottle onto a piece of art board which was fastened to a turntable. They would fire up the turntable and voila! You had created a modern art masterpiece.

Truly a renaissance man...in the mold of Buckaroo Bonzai...in fact, maybe they can redo that movie with Hunter as the protagonist...

Seriously though...there are some people stupid enough to believe this stuff and that HB did nothing wrong.

That explains how Hunter got rich off the Chinese, it's because they bought his art. It seems that they just love him over there. It's all legit, now just move along.

This garbage is art? We did that shit in elementary school. I wonder if daddy will let him put it on the fridge...

So THAT's what he is... Roll Eyes

Imagine the son of Don Corleone asking for an art gallery to put on his show...that's an implied offer one cannot refuse.

With the media solidly in Daddy's hip pocket, Fredo sorry, Hunter, can use subtle innuendo to convey the potential consequences of thwarting his requests. Why should he worry? Even if it gets out, Daddy has air cover.

That trick works with almost anything... What's next, "Dancing with the Stars"?

Compare Trump's children and their caliber to that of Biden's. Clearly Trump is the superior manager.

Like I said earlier, what's a better way to launder money than pay outrageous prices for this "artwork"? The telling tale is how many of these "masterpieces" are sold overseas.
