Kehinde Wiley, the world-famous artist identified for his vibrant, large-scale work of Black folks and extensively identified for his portrait of former President Barack Obama, denied allegations by a fellow artist alleging Wiley sexually assaulted him in 2021.
“Somebody I had a short, consensual relationship with almost three years in the past is now making false accusations about our time collectively,” Wiley mentioned. he wrote in an Instagram post Sunday. “These allegations are unfaithful and an insult to all victims of sexual assault.”
