Kehinde Wiley, whose work reinterprets pictorial representations of power and prestige through the tradition of portrait painting, began to question the meaning of presidential leadership after the election of Barack Obama. In 2012, he imagined an unprecedented series dedicated to African heads of state. For the next ten years, he travelled the continent to meet them. With each of them, he has explored the history of aristocratic, royal and military portraiture in 17th- 18th- and 19th-century Europe, to create a composition that illustrates each leader's singular view of what it means to be a contemporary African leader. In September 2023, the series A Maze of Power was exhibited for the first time at musée du quai Branly – Jacques Chirac.
