Artist Titus Kaphar taught himself how to paint by going to museums and studying historical paintings. Eventually he began making replicas, like the one shown above, which he alters in order to bring obscured, hidden, or completely absent Black characters to the foreground. His aim isn’t to erase the past, though, only to challenge how we remember history through art. “I can find out more about the lace that the woman is wearing in this painting than I can about this character here, about his dreams, about his hopes,” he says. “What is the impact of these kinds of paintings on some of our most vulnerable in society, seeing these kinds of depictions of themselves all the time? I'm not saying erase it. We can't erase this history. It's real. We have to know it.” Swipe to see Kaphar’s finished piece from TED2017, as well as the original painting by Frans Hals. Watch him complete the painting in his full TED talk, which explains how art can amend history, at the link in our bio. #BlackHistoryMonth [Frans Hals painting: Museo Thyssen-Bornemisza]
