Hunter Biden Embraces ‘Art for Art’s Sake: No Interest in Making Money

Simon Kent 14 Dec 2021

Hunter Biden has revealed the humble ethos that drives his newfound love of painting. He told Vanity Fair a recent Manhattan gallery show left him thrilled because “I wasn’t there to sell my art” and people going “wow” is its own reward.

The president’s son opened up about his self-effacing objective in the magazine interview, explaining the creative process satisfies him rather than tawdry suggestions he is only in it to trade off the family name.

Hunter claims about 95 per cent of the people at his recent opening in New York City were people he knew rather than art speculators. They included such celebrities as Moby, graphic artist Shepard Fairey – who designed the Obama ‘Hope’ poster – and Sugar Ray Leonard.

“I wasn’t there to sell my art. I wasn’t there to talk about my art. I wasn’t there to explain myself, or explain what my art represented. All I had to do was watch people go, ‘Wow,'” the 51-year-old said.

“And I knew that that’s what they would do, not because I was overly confident about it. I’m sure some people didn’t like some paintings, or some people thought that that was too abstract, or some people thought that that was too figurative. But I didn’t care. I truly didn’t care.”

He called putting paint on canvas “the most true thing that I’ve ever done,” after previously saluting himself for his “courageous” work and business model.

Of course real art speculators aren't showing up to Biden's shows, because it's not about art, it's about disguised political corruption and payoffs for "the big guy".

So if he has no interest in making money let him show to which charities he has donated all the proceeds, and I don't mean after he claims that 99% was what it cost to create and not to the Clinton or some other democrap charity that would kick back the vast majority by making him a paid board member. There is a dominant gene in the Biden family, let's call it the sleazy liar gene.
