  • Jeanmichel Basquiat: an Analysis of Nine Paintings
    Jean­Michel Basquiat: An Analysis of Nine Paintings By Michael Dragovic This paper was written for History 397: History, Memory, Representation. The course was taught by Professor Akiko Takenaka in Winter 2009. Jean‐Michel Basquiat’s incendiary career and rise to fame during the 1980s was unprecedented in the world of art. Even more exceptional, he is the only black painter to have achieved such mystic celebrity status. The former graffiti sprayer whose art is inextricable from the backdrop of New York City streets penetrated the global art scene with unparalleled quickness. His work arrested the attention of big‐ shot art dealers such as Bruno Bischofberger, Mary Boone, and Anina Nosei, while captivating a vast audience ranging from vagabonds to high society. His paintings are often compared to primitive tribal drawings and to kindergarten scribbles, but these comparisons are meant to underscore the works’ raw innocence and tone of authenticity akin to the primitivism of Henri Matisse, Pablo Picasso, Cy Twombly or, perhaps, even that of the infant mind. Be that as it may, there is nothing juvenile about the communicative power of Basquiat’s work. His paintings depict the physical and the abstract to express themes as varied as drug abuse, bigotry, jazz, capitalism, and mortality. What seem to be the most pervasive throughout his paintings are themes of racial and socioeconomic inequality and the degradation of life that accompanies this. After examining several key paintings from Basquiat’s brief but illustrious career, the emphasis on specific visual and textual imagery within and among these paintings coalesces as a marked—and often scathing— social commentary.

  • The Japanese Collector Recently Set the Auction Record for Jean-Michel Basquiat—Twice
    AiA Art News-service MARKET THE 200 TOP COLLECTORS Maezawa’s World: The Japanese Collector Recently Set the Auction Record for Jean-Michel Basquiat—Twice BY Nate Freeman POSTED 09/11/17 11:50 PM 241 150 1 407 Yusaku Maezawa photographed in his home in Tokyo, 2017. ©KOHEY KANNO It was just after 8 p.m. on May 18, 2017, when a painting by Jean-Michel Basquiat sold for more than $110 million at Sotheby’s, blasting past the pre-sale estimate of $60 million. It set a new auction record for the artist and became the sixth most expensive artwork ever to sell at auction. The initial reaction in the salesroom was a collective gasp, followed by wild applause—and then, perhaps, some quick mental tabulations in the minds of collectors with Basquiats on their walls. Next, everyone started to wonder: who bought the damn thing? All was revealed within minutes, when Japanese collector Yusaku Maezawa posted an image to his lively Instagram account of himself standing in front of the untitled black-on-blue skull from 1982. “I am happy to announce that I just won this masterpiece,” he wrote in the caption. The purchase capped Maezawa’s lightning-fast shoot to the front of the global collecting rat race, and the folk story of the sky-high total soon became a crossover sensation. Once again, the world was talking about the American artist who died of a heroin overdose on Great Jones Street in 1988, when he was only 27 years old. An illustration of Yusaku Maezawa’s infamous Instagram post by Alexandra Compain-Tissier.

The twenty- minute video is mesmerizing. Basquiat is charismatic, intelligent, and coy as he speaks on such issues as his childhood, feelings of alienation, and current art world success. Yet, when one listens closely to the interview, Basquiat deliberately obfuscates and exaggerates. As the artist admits at the outset of the interview, “I don’t think its good to be honest in interviews.

  • Masterpiece: Untitled, 1981 by Jean-Michel Basquiat
    Masterpiece: Untitled, 1981 by Jean-Michel Basquiat Keywords: Graffiti, Neo-Expressionism, Mural Grade: 5th Month: February Activity: Random Thoughts, Designs and Dreams Meet the Artist: • Jean-Michel Basquiat was born in 1960 in Brooklyn, New York. He was the second of four children. • His mother instilled a love for art in his young years by taking him to art museums in Manhattan and enrolling him as a junior member of the Brooklyn Museum of Art. • He was an avid reader and spoke multiple languages including English, French and Spanish by age 11. • Basquiat dropped out of High School in the tenth grade and his father banished him from the household. He stayed with friends and supported himself by selling T-shirts and homemade post cards. • When he was 16, Basquiat and a friend began spray-painting graffiti on buildings in Lower Manhattan. The graffiti marked the “witty sayings of a precocious and worldly teenage mind” and fearlessly spoke about the social, economic, and political world through the eyes of a young African American. • In 1980, at the age of 19 he had his first solo exhibition of his colorful acrylic and oil paintings. • In 1981, at the age of 23, his first “Graffiti” painting was auctioned at the famous auction house in New York known as Christie’s. This painting sold for $19,000. From the sale of this painting and became instantly famous and his work was in high demand. In 2012, his Untitled (1981) piece, depicting a haloed, black-headed man with bright red skeletal body, with the artist’s signature was sold at Christie’s ” London for $19.8 dollars thus setting a world auction record for Basquiat’s work.

  • Marianna Schmidt: Untitled (Three Figures) by ROBIN LAURENCE
    Marianna Schmidt UNTITLED (THREE FIGURES) Marianna Schmidt: Untitled (Three Figures) BY ROBIN LAURENCE Marianna Schmidt: Untitled (Three Figures) By Robin Laurence, 2008 The expressive figures in Marianna Schmidt’s art manifest the sense – or nonsense – she made out of her difficult existence. Evident throughout her many media, which include etching, lithography, photography, drawing, painting, sculpture, and collage, is a consuming interest in the human face and figure and an intuitive and often emotive approach to Marianna Schmidt image-making.

  • Andy Warhol 'Jean-Michel Basquiat'
    Basquiat Boom for Real 2 Introduction 4 New York /New Wave 9 SAMO© 12 Canal Zone 15 The Scene 20 Downtown 81 22 Beat Bop 25 Warhol 33 Self-Portrait 36 Bebop (Wall) 40 Bebop (Vitrine) 42 Art History (Wall) 45 Art History (Vitrine) 46 Encyclopaedia (Walls) 52 Encyclopaedia (Column) 55 Encyclopaedia (Vitrine) 57 Notebooks 59 The Screen 64 Interview Jean-Michel Basquiat was one of the most significant artists of the 20th century. Born in Brooklyn in 1960, to a Haitian father and a Puerto Rican mother, he grew up amid the post-punk scene in lower Manhattan. After leaving school at seventeen, he invented the character ‘SAMO©’, writing poetic graffiti that captured the attention of the city. He exhibited his first body of work in the influential group exhibition ‘New York/New Wave’ at P.S.1, Institute for Art and Urban Resources, Inc., in 1981. When starting out, Basquiat worked collaboratively and fluidly across media, making poetry, performance, music and Xerox art as well as paintings, drawings and objects. Upstairs, the exhibition celebrates this diversity, tracing his meteoric rise, from the postcard he plucked up the courage to sell to his hero Andy Warhol in SoHo in 1978 to one of the first collaborative paintings that they made together in 1984. By then, he was internationally acclaimed – an extraordinary feat for a young artist with no formal training, working against the racial prejudice of the time. In the studio, Basquiat surrounded himself with source material. He would sample from books spread open on the floor and the sounds of the television or boom box – anything worthy of his trademark catchphrase ‘boom for real’.

  • How a One-Painting Show Lets You Get Inside the Brilliant Young Basquiat’S Head
    How a One-Painting Show Lets You Get Inside the Brilliant Young Basquiat’s Head The Brooklyn Museum's show of the record-setting artwork, bought last year by a Japanese billionaire, has value far above the monetary. Ben Davis, February 8, 2018 A visitor contemplates Jean-Michel Basquiat's Untitled (1982) at the Brooklyn Museum. Money and art celebrity are what make Jean-Michel Basquiat’s Untitled (1982) worthy of a one-painting solo show at the Brooklyn Museum. The artwork was sold for $110.5 million to a Japanese billionaire last year, who has now lent it for the mini -exhibition as part of a world tour of his trophy. And of course, Basquiat’s shadow looms large within pop culture in general now. Leaving all that aside, though, it is still an engrossing painting to dive into. Untitled hails from the young Basquiat’s mercurial early years, even before his first gallery show at Annina Nosei, when he was still a Caribbean -American kid from Brooklyn energetically bootstrapping himself into the limelight of the downtown art scene. A year before, he had played a painter in the film Downtown 81 (excerpts of the film are showing at the Brooklyn Museum in an adjacent gallery), giving him the first chance to paint on actual canvas—a material upgrade from the walls of SoHo, which he notoriously stamped with his tag “SAMO” during his street art days. Jean Michel-Basquiat, Untitled (1982). Courtesy of Brooklyn Museum. Now Basquiat was already scaling up into the huge proportions of New York’s neo - Expressionist ‘80s.
