Synonymous with New York in the 1980s, the artist first appeared in the late 1970s under the tag SAMO, spraying caustic comments and fragmented poems on the walls of the city. He appeared as part of a thriving underground scene of visual arts and graffiti, hip hop, post-punk, and DIY filmmaking, which met in a booming art world. As a painter with a strong personal voice, Basquiat soon broke into the established milieu, exhibiting in galleries around the world.Basquiat’s expressive style was based on raw figures and integrated words and phrases. His work is inspired by a pantheon of luminaries from jazz, boxing, and basketball, with references to arcane history and the politics of street life—so when asked about his subject matter, Basquiat answered “royalty, heroism and the streets.” In 1983 he started collaborating with the most famous of art stars, Andy Warhol, and in 1985 was on the cover of The New York Times Magazine. When Basquiat died at the age of 27, he had become one of the most successful artists of his time.This book allows an unprecedented insight into Basquiat’s art, with pristine reproductions of his most seminal paintings, drawings, and notebook sketches. In large-scale format, the book offers vivid proximity to Basquiat’s intricate marks and scribbled words, further illuminated by an introduction to the artist from editor Hans Werner Holzwarth, as well as an essay on his themes and artistic development from curator and art historian Eleanor Nairne. Richly illustrated year-by-year chapter breaks follow the artist’s life and quote from his own statements and contemporary reviews to provide both personal background and historical context. Review: Amazing - Absolutely fantastic book. Lovely images of art. Arrived well packaged. Really fast delivery. Amazing work. Review: A must have for Basquiat fans - Just pages of quality large scale reproductions of his work, with just a splattering of writing here and there. All the well known works are there. Many books on the artist tend to focus on the celebrity, and the art seems an afterthought. This book gives his art the respect and presentation it deserves. Just wish it was about half the asking price, as there will likely be many fans that won't have the money to buy this. It might be worth looking up in a local library if that's the case, as it really is a great art book to take inspiration from. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #1,176,849 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #50,444 in Arts, Film & Photography (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.9 out of 5 stars 197 Reviews | ## Images ![Jean-michel Basquiat XXL (Extra Large) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91UHUBPQ7XL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazing *by T***D on 11 April 2019* Absolutely fantastic book.
