What are the paintings Hunter Biden is selling?
HUNTER Biden has been laying low in a quiet Los Angeles neighborhood - after he left his $5.4million rental in Venice Beach, California. The lawyer, former lobbyist, and son of US President Joe Biden is now an aspiring artist in his spare time. Per Artnet News, the 51-year-old is dipping his toes in the art world and is planning a private showing of his work for buyers in Los Angeles this fall. Hunter works on canvas, metal and Japanese Yupo paper, as his work is often layered with elements of photography, painting, collage and poetry. Hunter often creates colorful works of geometric patterns, trees  and even human body parts. I dont paint from emotion or feeling, which I think are both very ephemeral, Biden told the outlet. 5 Hunter Biden is dipping his toes in the world of art Credit: Georges Berges Gallery  For me, painting is much more about kind of trying to bring forth what is, I think, the universal truth.  He describes painting as putting "my energy toward something positive," explaining that it "keeps me away from people and places where I shouldn't be." Hunter told Artnet that his creative work is not a tool that I use to be able to, in any way, cope." He said his creativity "comes from a much deeper place" before comparing his work to that of abstract painter Mark Rothko. "If you stand in front of a Rothko, the things that he evokes go far beyond the pain that Rothko was experiencing in his personal life at that moment. I dont paint from emotion or feeling, which I think are both very ephemeral," Hunter said. 5 One of Hunter Biden's artworks Credit: Instagram  For me, painting is much more about kind of trying to bring forth what is, I think, the universal truth. According to his Soho art dealer, Georges Berges, Hunter's creations would fetch a pretty penny with pieces ranging in price from $75,000 to half a million dollars. Berges, who operates galleries in New York and Berlin, was drawn to the honesty of Bidens work. It has that authenticity that I see in a lot of artists that I personally love, be it [Lucien] Freud or [Francis] Bacon, he said. A lot of the issues that are thrown at Hunter is what makes him produce really great work." 5 According to his dealer, the president's son's artwork would fetch from $75,000 to half a million dollars Credit: Instagram  The owner of The Alexander Gallery in Manhattan, Alex Acevedo, 75, told The New York Post: Im not impressed with modern art at all. But I was floored by that guy." The palette was wonderful. The space was well-organized. I would buy a couple of them. And anybody who buys it would be guaranteed instant profit," Acevedo said. Acevedo said Hunter's art would most likely be priced at $25,000 to $100,000, claiming if he wasn't the POTUS' son he expected Hunter's work to make more than $1million. "Hes the presidents son. Everybody would want a piece of that. The provenance is impeccable." Likewise, art consultant Martin Galindo told the post hes not a fan of Hunter's work but he's positive that hes gonna do well in the market." 5 Hunter often creates colorful works of geometric patterns, trees  and even human body parts Credit: Eyevine  "Because this industry is very much about, whats a simple way to put this  its like clout," Galindo explained.
