Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti, who has been nominated as the United States Ambassador to India, attended an art show hosted by Hunter Biden, son of the US President Joe Biden, in Hollywood last week.. Biden's opponents and several lawmakers have slammed Garcetti, who is now awaiting confirmation hearing, for this.
According to Mother Jones, more or less 200 people attended this event. 'Hunter's gallerist, Georges Bergès, has said he's expecting as much as USD 500,000 for some of the paintings,' as per reports 'Unfortunately for the White House, the people about to profit from Hunter's foray into the art world are anticipating far higher returns and suddenly presenting the Biden administration with a new Hunter-related headache,' the news outlet said.
'The ambassador-designate to India was seen reportedly at an event in Los Angeles last week, an art gallery event that featured the artwork of the president's son, Hunter. The ethicists who have pointed to this arrangement have expressed concern that the president's son selling art could potentially put the president in a situation where those who seek jobs, either in this administration or favors from this administration, could put this White House in an awkward position,' a media person asked.
