Henry Sanchez’s internet presence outside of his skate clips is so depressing. He clearly has some kind of personality disorder and mental illness that prevents him from getting along with others.
Along with Jayne Fortune, Sanch was the pro who posted most regularly on slap back in my heyday. He was fairly cool most of the time, but super prone to arguments over nothing. My clearest memory is him drunkenly talking about whether he should cheat on his wife with an 18 year old girl who worked the phone at the auto shop he was apprenticing at - and then posting something like “dawgs, she’s in my lap as I’m typing this lol”.
Anyways, here is a SICK AS FUCK IG post by a “pro”
I mean yeah, it is pretty interesting that the CIA-connected Epstein, who was close with at least two US presidents, one British PM, multiple Israeli PMs, and several Saudi royals (you know, the people who literally did 9/11), had such a painting.
Yes, almost as interesting as the fact that this is not the painting that Epstein had on his wall; it was a different painting from the same artist, which showed Bill Clinton in Monica Lewinsky's blue dress and red heels.
The artist was a student in New York, who tried with these paintings to incorporate the sort of modern 'folklore' story-telling that develops around former U.S. presidents (their legacy in the eye of the public; a collective memory that more often than not comes to stand apart from reality) with their official, stately portrait (the 'official' legacy that they hope to leave behind with that artefact; the memory of integrity, authority, etc.). I don't think that idea has been worked out by the artist particularly well, but that's neither here nor there.
The painting then gets sold for a few dollar, at a fundraiser for the New York Academy of Art. The buyer is Epstein.
Why was Epstein there? He was close friends with the chair of the Academy's board (another student later sued the Academy and its chair, for enabling Epstein to groom her and fellow students during events organised by the Academy). Plus, no shadowy billionaire worth their salt passes on the opportunity to invest in some modern art (at mates' rates). Why did Epstein buy that Bush painting? He didn't. Pay attention. Why did Epstein buy that Clinton painting? He was friends with Clinton, Clinton would come over to his house often, and something tells me Epstein wouldn't shy away from a risqué 'gag' with an old friend, particularly if it is about his secretive and exploitative sexual relations with a much younger woman.
In short; billionaire nonce buys painting depicting his billionaire nonce friend in a billionair noncy pose, for a bit of a laugh.
