Lynette Yiadom-Boakye-Artist

Lynette Yiadom-Boakye is a Ghanian born, London bred artist with a penchant for portrait art. The heavy rotation of art dealing with people of African descent has propelled this young artist to new heights. Having solo exhibits around the round, Ms. Yiadom-Boakye's work has come to the Studio Museum in Harlem. On view from November 11,2010-March 13,2010, Any Number of Preoccupation will feature works created between 2003-when the artist completed her postgraduate work at the Royal Academy Schools and 2010. The total works are twenty-four of fictional portraits in oils on canvas. Enjoy the exhibit and tell me what you think?
