Brandon Breaux is a multi-disciplinary art … Brandon Breaux is a multi-disciplinary artist from the South Side of Chicago whose work includes oil-on-canvas and digital art. Breaux created the cover art to the 2012 Chance the Rapper debut mixtape 10 DAY. Breaux also created the cover art for the Acid Rap and Coloring Book mixtapes, and Chance's 2018 singles "Wala Cam", "65th and Ingleside" and "Work Out". Breaux shot the original photo and created the cover art for Acid Rap. The picture happened by chance, according to Breaux: "I had made these tie-dye tank tops before we went to SXSW and I gave them to Chance… In the back of my mind I'm like I hope you wear this." The cover artwork Breaux created for Coloring Book depicted Chance holding his baby daughter, capturing his facial expression but with the baby outside the frame of the image. Following the publication of the cover art for Chance the Rapper, artists including Drake, Kehlani, Miguel, and Troye Sivan have released album cover art showing Breaux's influence. His debut U.S. solo exhibition, BIG WORDS, included painting, print, and fashion design, and was curated by Anna Cerniglia and Alison Cuddy for Blanc Gallery. Breaux's commissioned portraiture work includes fashion icon André Leon Talley for the cover of Ebony, and civil rights pioneer Congressman John Lewis for the cover of his final published work, Carry On: Reflections for a New Generation. In 2020, Breaux collaborated with the Museum of Contemporary Art on a capsule collection. In 2022, Breaux was selected in a cohort of 14 master artists and designers to be part of Dorchester Industries Experimental Design Lab, a partnership of the Prada Group, Theaster Gates Studio, Dorchester Industries, and Rebuild Foundation. Ebony magazine named Breaux in the 2022 EBONY Power 100 list of Black leaders in business, STEM, sports, media, activism, music and entertainment.
