An exhibition of historic importance.™Visions of Our 44th President is a collective sculptural show created to recognize and celebrate the historical significance of the first African American President of the United States of America, Barack Obama.

Forty-four Contemporary African American Artists, renowned and emerging, are participating in the avant-garde art collaboration with the Charles H. Wright Museum of African American History, the world's  largest institution dedicated to the African American experience, and Peter Kaplan of Our World, LLC.
 Dynamic and inspiring, the exhibition includes 44 artists’ interpretations of our 44th President in three-dimensional form. In essence, each sculpture is a blank canvas upon which artists imaginatively celebrate the man, his presidency and our history. The exhibition will travel to prestigious museums, universities, libraries and galleries across the country. At each venue, an interactive art and history program in conjunction with an Artist Symposium will benefit children of all ages. At the conclusion of the tour, the collection will become a part of The Wright Museum’s permanent collection.

Visions of Our 44th President will inspire present and  future generations with its messages of diversity, hope and possibility. Sculpture of President Obama by Matthew Gonzales for Our World, LLC.

Its been a long time coming...glad to see you're finally doing "Your Thing." Keep Moving. You are a Great Artist, I love your talent.
P.S. I bought # 386/500 of your 6/1986 drawing of a Mother giving her Baby Boy water via her palm from an antique kitchen faucet (ATL Underground.) Everyone loves it. Its interesting, that I started working for you over 10 years later. Keep the Faith...Joycelyn
