ARTWORK:

American academic work. The artist chose to paint dark black and obscure the man’s natural beauty. Some galleries would not display academic nudes of black men due to racism and a strange form of prejudice. Many curators stating the genitals were “too large” and may scare some art fans and patrons. Sad times. Let’s move into a brighter future where all men’s bodies who are fit can be celebrated.
