The Wall Street Journal says they’d [Obamas] like to borrow modern art by African-American, Asian, Hispanic and female artists for the White House.

In a sharp departure from the 19th-century still lifes, pastorals and portraits that dominate the White House’s public rooms, they are choosing bold, abstract art works.

I didn’t see mention of removing portraits of Presidents.
