Artist's Comments
Today was the inauguration of the 44th (yes, I know about the Grover Cleveland thing, so don't even try to go there) President of the United States of America.
Since I had recently done an image of Richard Nixon after seeing the film Frost/Nixon, I really leaned into this after hearing the inauguration speech. I think I am going to go through various POTUS, and marry their faces to interesting quotes. In this case, Barack Obama is placed with a quote by Edmund Burke. Burke is a philosopical root for modern European/American conservativism. He is also someone that most so-called conservatives today seem to know next to zero about, but that seems to reflect in much of the statements made by Obama in terms of tone and thoughtfulness. That is not an assessment of policymaking or ideological position, but personal disposition and manner.
