Chinese artist 艺术家 comments on our times by recreating some of the most famous paintings in art history. Today’s world leaders and dictators become the card players in Georges de La Tour’s “The Card Sharp with the Ace of Diamonds”, while Iran’s former Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei takes the place of Jean-Paul Marat in Jacques-Louis David’s “The Death of Marat”. Like them or not, Su Yu’s paintings definitely stir up emotions. How many of the original paintings do you recognize without swiping? ✍🏻
