This past weekend a cereal crafted portrait of the 44th President, Barack Obama, was displayed in The Armory Show in New York City.  

The Artists of this masterpiece are Hank Willis Thomas and Ryan Alexiev, who in Breakfast of Champions commented and said that:

            “The sugary sweet mosaic, made of thousands of cereal bits, depicts idea of what a healthily balanced breakfast (democracy) might look like when considering the role that marketing plays in myth building around corporate and political brands.”

You can buy a print of the portrait from Cerealart.com. Check out more cereal art at ryanalexiev.com.  Very cool 🙂
