Icono del Nueva York de la década de 1980, Jean-Michel Basquiat (1960-1988) se hizo inicialmente un nombre firmando grafitis con el nombre de "SAMO", antes de establecer su estudio y alcanzar rápidamente la fama con tan sólo 20 años. Aunque su carrera apenas duró una década, sigue considerándose una figura de culto del arte comprometido socialmente y un pionero en la mediación entre el grafiti y el arte de galería.
En su obra, Basquiat hizo uso de fuentes y medios diversos para crear un vocabulario artístico original y urgente, que supuso, además, una crítica mordaz contra las estructuras de poder y el racismo. En su práctica fusionó la abstracción y la figuración, la poesía y la pintura, mientras que sus influencias englobaban desde el arte griego, romano y africano hasta la poesía francesa, los ritmos del jazz y la obra de artistas contemporáneos como Andy Warhol y Cy Twombly. Los resultados son mezclas vívidas y viscerales de palabras, emblemas africanos, figuras de dibujos animados y manchas de colores vivos, entre multitud de otros detalles.
Este libro presenta la carrera breve pero prolífica de Basquiat, su estilo único y su profunda implicación con temas tan relevantes como la integración y la segregación, la pobreza y la riqueza.

Descripción Hardcover. Condición: New. Illustrated. An icon of 1980s New York, Jean-Michel Basquiat (1960-1988) first made his name under the graffiti tag SAMO, before establishing his studio practice and catapulting to fast fame at the age of 20. Although his career lasted barely a decade, he remains a cult figure of artistic social commentary, and a trailblazer in the mediation of graffiti and gallery art.Basquiats work drew upon diverse sources and media to create an original and urgent artistic vocabulary, biting with critique against structures of power and racism. His practice merged abstraction and figuration, poetry and painting, while his influences spanned Greek, Roman, and African art, French poetry, jazz,and the work of artistic contemporaries such as Andy Warhol and Cy Twombly. The results are vivid, visceral mixtures of words, African emblems, cartoonish figures, daubs of bold color, and beyond.This book presents Basquiats short but prolific career, his unique style, and his profound engagement with ever-relevant issues of integration and segregation, poverty and wealth.About the seriesBorn back in 1985, the Basic Art Series has evolved into the best-selling art book collection ever published.
