From the streets of New York to the walls of the most prominent galleries, follow the short, prolific and politicized career of Jean-Michel Basquiat in the book Basquat - Basic Art Series. This book explores how the young trailblazer drew inspiration from sources as diverse as Greek, Roman and African art, as well as French poetry and jazz, to create poignant images that blend words with bold colours. 

An icon of 1980s New York, Jean-Michel Basquiat (1960–1988) first made his name under the graffiti tag “SAMO”, before establishing his studio business and quickly becoming famous at the age of 20. Although his career lasted barely a decade, he remains a cult figure in artistic social commentary and a pioneer in the intertwining of graffiti and gallery art. Basquiat's work drew on diverse sources and media to create an original and urgent artistic language, filled with criticism of power structures and racism.
