Known for his work of satirical nature, Robert Colescott is most known for his exuberant, comical, and often negative/bitter portrayals of being African American. Colescott was the first African American to represent America in a solo exhibition at the Venice Biennale. In George Washington Carver Crosses the Deleware Colescott switched out George Washington and replaced him with a black character. This is symbolizing how black people can do anything and could have been a part of American/World History.
