Description
Explore the iconic works of Jean-Michel Basquiat in this comprehensive volume. Devoted to an exhibition at the Brant Foundation, this collection brings together 100 of the artist's most important works, contextualizing his art within its East Village roots.
Noted scholar and curator Dr. Dieter Buchhart offers a critical assessment of Basquiat's enduring legacy, focusing on key subjects that informed his work, including jazz, anatomy, sports figures, comics, classical literature, the African diaspora, and art history. The exhibition partially restages three of the artist's critical early shows, shedding new light on Basquiat's so-called stretcher bar paintings.
Featuring a range of powerful and complex works that engaged with charged sociopolitical issues, this volume is a valuable addition to any collection or for those looking to deepen their understanding of Basquiat's art.
