The art dealer representing Hunter Biden said the president's son had the potential to be one of the most influential painters of the modern era, but declined to say whether he'd cooperate with a congressional investigation into sales of the art.
Georges Bergès, who has been overseeing the sale of Biden's paintings, said the 53-year-old would 'become one of the most consequential artists in this century.'
His comments came as the New York Post pressed him on whether he would comply with requests from the House Oversight Committee, which asked to see the names of individuals who purchased Biden's artwork and the price they paid for it.

The IRS should have the new 87K agents unravel the Biden money machine.

Georges Bergès, huh? It was probably George Berger before he changed it. The man has no credibility.

He is a consequential artist alright, I am guessing that $500,000 a pop art comes with classified documents taped to the back and is creating a lot of consequences for the country.

I wouldn't trust the opinion of 'art experts' too much. Last year it was revealed a famous modern painting was hung upside-down 70 years ago. And none of them noticed in all that time.

The styles of the Hunter paintings are all over the place, as if done by different artists. Every artist has a particular style, it's like their fingerprints. Something screwy is going on here. Beside the influence peddling.

My dog could pee on a piece of paper and create better art. This art dealer has already bragged that China is his new best customer. Hunter is a filthy, perverted crook, just like his father.

Making him just another huckster selling snake oil, another salesman telling us all he thinks we should buy what he's selling
Only this time, we have ample evidence of Hunter selling access to FJB for cash...
I understand the claim by the salesman and Hunter (they want your money!), but anyone who defends this obvious charade is a fool.

His art probably wouldn't sell for $20 on the street. This is money laundering or payoff money.

The art dealer in question is hoping to make boatloads of money on the back of a totally talentless boy wonder who can’t stop trading on Daddy’s name. The art dealer’s credibility should be permanently destroyed.

The only thing consequential about Hunter's paintings is results of the payoff's to the family. What are these buyers getting from the Biden cabal?

Hunter is selling ACCESS to Joey, the paintings, if you can call them that, are nothing but cover up mechanisms!

I wouldn't trust gallery owners as far as I could throw them. Read about Ann Freedman and the Knoedler Gallery in NYC. She sold at least 40 fake Motherwell, Rothko and Pollock paintings for millions of dollars between 1994 and 2011. Before that, Knoedler was also sued for selling Nazi-looted art.

Ah, and the people who wanted me to leave my estate to their cult told me that I am the most consequential artist of the century, should i elect to turn my massive talents in that direction. I wonder if they were just saying that so i would sign the papers.

If this 'art dealer' thinks that, maybe he should open a pawn shop instead...my dog could paint better than that coke-head wanker...

I can agree that Hunter Biden is 'one of the most consequential artists in this century...but only for the century that began about 10 min ago.

Remember those 'Velvet Elvis' paintings...you know, the ones that got worse and worse the closer you got?
Well...Hunter's are worse than those.

Equivalent to paying 500k for a speech by ob, hill, or bill. Except at the current time more bang for the buck to buy hunters so called art.

Hmmm, who should I believe, Georges the art expert or Georges the guy at the dealership trying to convince me to pay extra for the undercoating?

What makes Hunter's paintings work $500K? They are painted on the back of classified documents or; in between the painting and the backing of the frame is a special classified document relating to the title of the painting. The "special paper" contained in Hunters paintings make them worth the money to the right people.
