President Biden’s son, Hunter Biden, is selling art paintings for as high as $500,000.
Hunter’s first pieces have been picked up by art dealer Georges Berges, who priced Biden’s artwork between $75,000 and $500,000, depending on the size and scope of the work.
Compared to other artist’s early sales, that is huge. Biden’s first sales are even more than a piece by Jean-Michel Basquiat that sold for $20,900 in 1984 – $53,770.96 in today’s dollars.
“I don’t paint from emotion or feeling, which I think are both very ephemeral,” Biden told artnet. “For me, painting is much more about kind of trying to bring forth what is, I think, the universal truth.”
Biden’s dealer, Berges, who also represents Sylvester Stallone and was reportedly arrested in California for assault with a deadly weapon and terrorist threats, plans to promote the art through a private viewing in Los Angeles and an exhibition in New York later this year.
Berges said that Biden’s art has “authenticity.” He even compared it to works made by art legends Lucien Freud and Francis Bacon.
“It has that authenticity that I see in a lot of artists that I personally love, be it Freud or Bacon,” he said. “A lot of the issues that are thrown at Hunter is what makes him produce really great work.”
Hunter Biden has been painting since he was a child. He has no formal art training, but he has taken a serious focus to his work and is now creating art full-time.
Even without formal training, Biden’s pieces carrying five- to six-figure price tags put his work in the same range as well-known artists.
For comparison, a piece by Andy Warhol sold for $725,000 at a New York auction. That is only $225,000 more than what Biden sold his piece for.
Art dealer Alex Acevedo told the New York Post that he was impressed with Biden’s work. He said that the pieces could capture between $25,000 and $100,000 if Biden didn’t have his name recognition.
“And anybody who buys it would be guaranteed instant profit,” Acevedo told the Post. “He’s the president’s son. Everybody would want a piece of that. The provenance is impeccable.’’
Mark Tribe, who sits as the chairman of the New York City’s School of Visual Arts’ MFA Fine Arts Department, told the New York Post that Biden’s work was “pretty strong.”
“The colors and compelling organic forms – it’s the kind of organic abstraction that I find easy on the eyes and provokes your curiosity,’’ Tribe said.
I hope the numbers do not show thru the watercolors
Hahaha , I love it . That clown is anything but an A+ painter . I wonder what that shitheads house looks like . He probably painted it with watercolors , the idiot .
At these prices for the crap he paints this is money laundering of BRIBES. No wonder the buyers are confidential I’ll bet none of the “art” ends up in a respectable gallery.
Someone already said if he sold his paintings it would be for favors from his father!!!! Well looky here.. and don’t tell who bought the painting ( favors) .. in plain sight!!!! But swept under the rug as usual… follow the buyers!!!!
WHO WOULD WANT HIS 💩💩💩💩👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻HE NEEDS TO BE IN PRISON—CORRUPT SCUM🤮🤮🤮

Both of them queerbaits are as corrupt as they come . Daddy biting is too senile and suffers from dementia and AIDS /HIV that he’s not aware of his activities that’s why monkey ears or elephant ears osama has to show his rat ass all the time to write the answers for the days 2 or 3 questions a week the old fart tries to answer . SOB!!!
The Biden family story of deceit and deception continues to plague the public view but how do they keep getting away with this
“creative clepto” agenda? This new attempt here to pad their pocketbooks once again is BRAZEN to say the least, but on the other hard to beat the cover up tactics of the Hunter Biden FBI investigation and of course the grand daddy of them all, the 2020 national election fraud.
Look at all these so called “art experts” completely fawning over his work. Didn’t we just witness publishing of the book, A Beautiful Thing, about Hunter’s serious drug addictions, to which he received a stunning $2 million advance go belly up on the book store sales charts even after some so called book critics hailed it in advance as a landmark publication (the only landmark now is the public dump).
And if you really want to buy this trash, it will be done on a private sale basis only! Who would want their name published as a contributor to our political mafia family? Make no mistake about it, this is another clever but corrupt attempt to raise more money for the clan. With the book it didn’t matter in a way if it sold or not because the $2 million was on ice ahead of any publication. The art work here is a little different angle but allows the radical left to contribute through the back door without being publicized.
What is going to happen now when the illicit demand for his paintings is so high he can not keep up with demand? Will they then resort to Zerox copies like the fake ballots that were produced in state elections?
This might be a great story for a decent journalist to study further. Folks would be dying to know who actually is on or going to be on the buyers list. Would we see the likes of George Soros, Mark Zuckerberg, Jack Dorsey, Bill Gates, Jeff Bezos and others in that category as willing purchasers? Will we see legislation to purchase, snuck into the Infastruture Bill to acquire copies to decorate all the newly gender declared Federal rest rooms?
Another DUPE JOB by the Democrats to pay off their fearless leaders. And the only thing the FBI now seems to be looking into about Hunter Biden is whether or not the Russians helped create the laptop story as fake news?
Come on, WAKE UP AMERICA!!!!!
When will people wake up to all the DARK behavior in Washington. This is NOT the White House as we know it. Dark, very dark. Congress is so imbedded in all this. I weep for this country and all the backstabbing bullshit going on from the top on down.
Sadly. I am not surprised. Artwork by serial killers have attracted buyers – for example, paintings by the infamous “Killer Clown” Gacy. I would love to learn the identities pf the “private” buyers, with a full investigation into their connections. Unfortunately, I do not think this will happen because Hunter is the son of the sitting President. It is well known that art sales have for many years been a perfect way to launder money. The focus needs to be on whether political favors are the focus of any private buyers. Not judging, just saying . . .
Looks like a paint by number
artwork is a perfect way to launder money. we need to watch who is buying it
