Brief summary of Jean-Michel Basquiat:
Born on December 22, 1960 in Brooklyn, New York, Jean-Michel Basquiat grew up on the streets of that neighborhood, where he began to create fierce graffiti in the subway stations of Lower Manhattan, signing them with the anagram SAMO which means "SAMe Old shit "(same old shit).

In 1980, at only 19 years old, Basquiat participated in the Times Square Show, attracting the attention of critics and the specialized press. The following year, he exhibited at P.S. 1, where his success was considerable, and where he began his friendship with one of the most famous and controversial personalities of the time, ANDY WARHOL. Warhol and Basquiat admired each other and collaborated on almost a hundred works.

In 1983 Basquiat traveled to the Italian city of Modena, where he attended his first solo exhibition. This publicized event was an extraordinary success, making him the most respected African-American artist of the day. But this success also had its negative side: Basquiat began to abuse drugs excessively, which often transported him to a terrible state of paranoia. On August 12, 1988, Basquiat was found dead from an overdose in his apartment. He was only 27 years old.

Stylistically, Basquiat's artwork is much more complicated to explain than a cursory analysis may suggest, and is inspired by multiple references, such as contemporary artists like Picasso or Pollock, jazz music, early African culture, and perhaps even heroin abuse. .

In 2002, I sold his profit at Christie's for over $ 5.5 million. The painting was created in 1982, when Basquiat was only 21 years old.
