America’s newest presidential center and library, located in Chicago and devoted to the legacy of Barack Obama, America’s 44th president, is a heavy hitter in the art department. Opening to the public June 19, the eight-story granite museum building, designed by Tod Williams Billie Tsien Architects, features major commissions by more than 30 artists, including stars such as Njideka Akunyili Crosby, whose portrait of the former First Couple has just been unveiled; it is the first official portrait of the Obamas. (They had individually commissioned portraits by Kehinde Wiley and Amy Sherald.)

Here are five of the newest, biggest, and splashiest commissions that will greet the public when the center opens in a few days: https://www.artnews.com/list/artnews/news/see-obama-centers-newest-artistic-commissions-including-njideka-akunyili-crosbys-portrait-of-the-former-first-couple-1234789425/njideka-akunyili-crosby-the-obamas-springing-forth/
