Kool-Aid appears in 2 promotional emails from NAHMAD CONTEMPORARY art gallery sent to Jeffrey Epstein's email address ([email protected]) in 2021, advertising a David Hammons exhibition titled 'Basketball & Kool-Aid.'
The mentions are not about Kool-Aid as a person, but rather references to the beverage brand in the context of contemporary art. All 13 mentions come from two identical promotional emails (one from April 29, 2021 and an extended exhibition notice from June 24, 2021) sent by an art gallery to Epstein's Yahoo email account. The emails describe artist David Hammons's artwork that used Kool-Aid powder as a medium to explore constructions of race and class in America. The NER system incorrectly classified 'Kool-Aid' as a PERSON entity when it is actually a product/brand name appearing in art exhibition titles and descriptions.
Key Highlights
- •All mentions are from art gallery promotional emails sent to [email protected] in 2021, years after Epstein's death in 2019
- •References David Hammons's 2003-07 series using Kool-Aid powder as an artistic medium to explore racial and class constructions
- •The exhibition also featured connections to other cultural symbols like Andy Warhol and Harlem
- •This represents an entity extraction error - Kool-Aid is a beverage brand, not a person
