Review | An artist's polemical portraits turn MAGA grotesque
Briefly

Gates's photo-collaged portraits of Trump and allies reveal their rage in a bold, artistic format, showcasing public personas through emotional and provocative imagery.
Each collage features a caption with controversial statements, representing the subject's self-inflicted character defamation, as Gates argues in the show's catalogue.
Gates identifies as a 'meta-narrator,' utilizing his backgrounds in political science and graphic design to produce art that challenges political partisanship.
With a history of political art since 2010, Gates's work reflects a desire for meaningful dialogue amidst the divisive political landscape of America.
