Artist Titus Kaphar on depicting loss and finding purpose
One of the country's hottest artists, Titus Kaphar has long tackled under-representation of minorities in Western art through his plays on classic paintings. He talks with correspondent Rita Braver about his artwork, and about NXTHVN, an arts program he co-founded that aids emerging artists, curators and students.

Art married to genuine compassion. Beautiful in every way.
Thank you CBS for providing these videos for free! In my country I have no access to CBS on the Telecvision, so I can watch here.

Outstanding art and meaning that fit better than a puzzle. There needs to be art that is kept and not given away.
This is actually something I would put up in my room, this is some really good art.
I enjoy his work, it makes you do a double take and think. Art can empower people, this is a prime example of that.
Beautiful 💖

Great human truth story!
Love his work. Check out Project Atrium -Carl Joe Williams. Resonance of the times we are in
Tragically, the conversation never mentioned black children killed by gang violence or drugs as another massive reason for the loss of children.

You beat your drum. He is beating his. You sing in the chorus of your ilk. He focuses on his viewpoint. The late Nina Simone, Billie Holiday would have some choice words for what you think they should be singing about. We are not your mouthpieces or puppets! We witness our lives. As Bishop Tutu shared: You'll travel a road and see a sign. Black people cross here. Go further, another sign: Black people very cross here!

Absolutely right, they talk about invisibility, how about all those killed by gang violence. They are the definition of invisibility, no one will touch that topic because it isn’t black and white, it too complicated and inconvenient.
These old people need to stop doing interviews and asking stupid questions
The white wife explains why he tries so hard to make up with black women by removing black men from his art. Sickening
Love the work. But why doesn't he mention all the blacks lives lost to black on black violence, gangs etc.? He jumped right on the police actions though.

Because the topics of black on black violence, gang violence etc is too complicated and inconvenient. Blame the police because that’s the low hanging fruit.

Of course he has a white wife 😒
