Ranked #6,837 in Theory & Criticism with over 350 reviews averaging 4.8 stars, this print book offers a pristine, collectible format that appeals to art professionals and enthusiasts seeking both inspiration and critical insight. ## Description Jean-Michel Basquiat was only twenty-seven when he died in 1988, his meteoric and often controversial career having lasted for just eight years. Despite his early death, Basquiat's powerful œuvre has ensured his continuing reputation as one of modern art's most distinctive voices. Borrowing from graffiti and street imagery, cartoons, mythology and religious symbolism, Basquiat's drawings and paintings explore issues of race and identity, providing social commentary that is shrewdly observed and biting. This bestselling book, now available in a compact edition, celebrates Basquiat's achievements in the contexts of the key influences on his art. It not only re-evaluates the artist's principal works and their meaning, but also explains what keeps his painting relevant today. Review: バスキア写真集 - 綺麗な状態でした。 ありがとうございました。 Review: if you can, buy the much larger hardcover copy of this book - As other reviewers have said, buy the much larger hardcover copy of this book. I bought the paperback (at about 1/3 of the price) but the reproductions of the artwork are a little too small. This book is really about Basquiat's artwork, which is fine. It does include on pp. 26-27 a full copy and a detail of "Philistines," (1982), which in October, 1983: "Basquiat's painting "The Philistines," (sic) is included in the exhibition "Expressive Painting after Picasso," Fondation (sic) Beyeler, Basel, Switzerland. He is shown alongside artists such as Joan Miro, Jean Dubuffet, Willem de Kooning and Jackson Pollock. Basquiat's work appears on the cover of the exhibition catalogue." From "Basquiat: Boom For Real," (2017), Edited by Dieter Buchhart and Eleanor Nairne, with Lotte Johnson, page 274. If you want get the artwork and some background information about Basquiat, his life and times, buy "Basquiat: Boom For Real," which is available at desertcart for $37.42, shipped. Jean-Michel Basquiat, (BASS-KEY-AH), born 12/22/60, Brooklyn, New York, died 8/12/88 (27), Manhattan, N.Y. In about 1973, (when he was 13), his mother was committed to a mental institution. Looking at JMB's works, you can see the influence of his mother ("Gray's Anatomy" book she gave him in the hospital after he was hit by a car at age seven), and I believe her difficulties deeply affected him. ## Features - Merrell ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #1,414,293 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #9,475 in Theory & Criticism | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 out of 5 stars 352 Reviews | ## Images ![Basquiat: WC Burns; Revival Preacher - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/810o82LLGwL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ バスキア写真集 *by 原***美 on 21 October 2021* 綺麗な状態でした。 ありがとうございました。 ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ if you can, buy the much larger hardcover copy of this book *by B***G on 23 September 2018* As other reviewers have said, buy the much larger hardcover copy of this book.
