MIAMI—With this year's Miami fair week nestled between one of the most exciting election seasons in American history and one of the most anticipated inaugurations, it's no wonder that politically themed imagery seems to be the order of day.

The most ubiquitous face, not surprisingly, is that of ~~soon-to-be-anointed savior-in-chief~~ president-elect Barack Obama; at Scope alone, the hopemonger featured prominently in artworks by at least four artists, not all of them American.
