Basquiat's Pop Art has nothing in common with the world of appearances of the star system: it comes from the street, from the dirty alleys of the Bronx, from loneliness. It is characterized by a style that launches strong messages and denunciations through violent colors and a childish sign, derived from tribal graffiti. Basquiat strongly persecuted the African-American cause, he was an attentive observer of an alienating and unequal society, but his works were never fully understood, although they were sold to considerable numbers: we did not understand the desperate poetry that accompanies them and we do not understand the their social value, perhaps so subversive as to have to be in some way anesthetized by the market. It was probably the total misunderstanding of his art that caused Basquiat's death at the age of 27, killed by a cocktail of drugs that he had always used.Jean-Michel Basquiat was a Neo-Expressionist painter in the 1980s. He is best known for his primitive style and his collaboration with pop artist Andy Warhol. Jean-Michel Basquiat was born on December 22, 1960, in Brooklyn, New York. He first attracted attention for his graffiti under the name "SAMO" in New York City. He sold sweatshirts and postcards featuring his artwork on the streets before his painting career took off. He collaborated with Andy Warhol in the mid-1980s, which resulted in a show of their work. Will be shipped flat between pieces of thick cardboard to ensure safe transit and delivery.
