Date: August 14–October 17, 2010
Artist: Abdi Farah
Website: abdiart.com
A presentation showcasing work of Abdi Farah is perhaps one of a kind, as Brooklyn Museum points out the process itself isn't, apparently in the 19th century you had to win a competition to exhibit at the Louvre. What makes it one of the kind is the fact reality TV actually did give a chance of a lifetime to one of its competitors.
Will the art world really welcome this young and talented Bravo winner? He did not get a something as precious as a Covergirl commercial (of course he did get $100,000) but Abdis inspiring and bold work is currently exhibited next to an Andy Warhol retrospective, judge yourself and view his work of art after the jump:
