A look at the life, work, controversies, and iconic mystique of Jean-Michel Basquiat, an artist who conquered the art world, defined a generation of 1980’s expressionist painting, and became a celebrity doing it.
Basquiat was an artist with preternatural talent who created art inspired by Jazz, Beat poets, Cy Twombly, Leonardo da Vinci, graffiti, Hip-Hop, and nearly everything else under the sun. He took on racism, politics, and art history itself in his short but exceptional career.
