- When i first saw his work, it appeared real black ,brown people even their clothes , face of expression as looks real. Also, the background of his painting was amazing the pattern and style. Wiley's paintings often blur the boundearies between traditional and contemporary modes of representation and he creates a fusion of period styles, ranging from Frednch rococo, Islamic architexture and West African textile design to urban hip-hop. Moreover, his portraits are based on photographs of young men who Wiley sees on the street.
The artist describes his approach as "interrogating the notion of the master painter, at once critical and complicit." Wiley’s figurative paintings "quote historical sources and position young black men within that field of power.” In this manner, Wiley’s paintings fuse history and style in a unique and contemporary manner.
3. Wiley's work relates to next weeks Postmodern theme "Pluralism".
Read page 46 and discuss how the work relates to this theme.
-Pluralism in art refers to the nature of artroms and artists as diverse. The cultural context of art is all encompassing in its respect of the art of the world's cultures. Inclussion of individuals of differing ethnicities , genders, ideologies, abilities, ages, religions, economic status and educational levels is valued. Pluralism honours differences within and between equitable groups while seeing their commonalities.(para1)

Personally, i think , his works relates to the theme of Pluralism. Wiley's works describe lots of issues and the different hierachies that our society already have. Also, the theatrical poses and objects in the portraits are based on well-known images of powerful figures drawn from 17th - 19th century Western art and some of ,or more of his work related modern culture, from French Rococo to today's urban landscape and it seems like contemporary vision . Then, he presented in his working that black or brown people's status or their pride , freedom are same with white people those things express pluralism.
4. Comment on how Wiley's work raises questions around social, cultural hierarchies colonisation, globalisation, stereotypes and the politics which govern a western world view.
-Honestly, Wiley's working dosent looks serious of included question around social , cultural hierarchies colonisation, globalisation, stereotypes etc but i can see his considering of "white men" and "black men" and wealth , power, and prestige to subject matteer.
5.Add some reflective comments of your own, which may add more information that you have read during your reserch.
In my opinion, the feature of his art is detail and so much realistic i really prefer those point from his work. Also, i like the paintings, which are illuminated with a barrager of baroque or rococo decorative pattern, posit young black men.
