Jackie vs JFK II

Created by artist Alex Guofeng Cao, *Jackie vs JFK II* is a striking chromogenic print face-mounted to Plexiglas that explores the iconic imagery of one of America's most legendary couples. Cao masterfully layers and juxtaposes portraiture to examine themes of power, identity, and cultural mythology surrounding the Kennedy legacy. The face-mounting to Plexiglas enhances the work's luminosity and depth, giving the image a polished, almost cinematic presence.
