JEAN MICHEL BASQUIAT
HOME
| "Every line means something." - Jean-Michel Basquiat |
| In his short life (1960-1988), Jean-Michel Basquiat came to personify the art scene of the 80s, with his merging of youth culture, money, hype excess, and self-destruction. And then there was the work, which the public image tended to overshadow : paintings and drawings that conjured up marginal urban black culture and black history, as well as the artist's own conflicted sense of identity. |
