AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Basquiat book
The book is new! Comes with protective film and original cardboard box.
Book format XXL
The most comprehensive edition to date.
This book offers an unprecedented insight into the art of Basquiat through exceptional reproductions of his most important paintings, drawings, and sketches. Due to its very large format, it provides a striking proximity to Basquiat through his mysterious signs and scribbled words, illuminated by an introduction to the artist by the publisher Hans Werner Holzwarth and an essay on his preferred themes and artistic evolution by art historian and curator Eleanor Nairne. The artist's life is traced, year by year, through richly illustrated chapters enriched with Basquiat's quotes and contemporary critical texts, allowing for a better understanding of his personal experience and the historical context of his work.
Decipher the mysterious signs and scribbled words of Jean-Michel Basquiat, whose explosive paintings with musical, political, and personal resonances are as relevant today as they were in 1980s New York. This XXL-format monograph gathers the artist's most striking works in exceptional reproductions and includes texts by editor Hans Werner Holzwarth and art historian and curator Eleanor Nairne.
Hardcover, 29 x 39.5 cm, 4.93 kg, 500 pages, with 5 fold-outs.
