This bold biography explores the meteoric rise and tragic fall of Neo-expressionist artist Jean-Michel Basquiat, tracing his journey from a teenage graffiti artist to an international art sensation during the vibrant and chaotic 1980s art scene. Featuring prominent figures like Keith Haring and Andy Warhol, the book captures the explosive mix of art, music, and culture that characterized the era. As Basquiat's work continues to resonate with the ongoing dialogue around diversity and representation, this definitive account offers a vivid portrait of both the artist and the dynamic world he inhabited, complemented by a collection of photographs.
