a presidential traffic warning

the prez is in Miami today. Obama will be landing at MIA (hopefully they'll keep the ugly Britto guayabera clad employees far far away from him to preserve the tiniest bit of self-respect) on Air Force One at 5:30 pm- as in the worst possible time to show up in Miami. But one of the perks of being POTUS is that traffic parts like the Red Sea for you and your giant entourage of homies. So beware fellow regulars to the Miami traffic scene- President Barack Obama is in the hood and your traffic will be even worse than usual.

Here are some pieces from last year's ArtBasel featuring Obama:

from top to bottom: David Zwirner Gallery exhibited "Barack, 2008" by Yan Pei-Ming, At Scope Miami, Keszler Gallery presented Obama silkscreens by Russell Young, And outside of the Scope venue, one of Los Angeles' most prominent street artists, Mr. Brainwash (aka Thierry Guetta), created a mural of Barack Obama as Superman.
