Alux.com your episodes are all so amazingly interesting.
May I suggest some other subjects : Bollywood celebs like Priyanka Chopra n Deepika padakoune to name a few. It's a huge facinating subject for sure.
Villroy bouch is another fav.
I think his work has stood the test of time because he had a specific point of view and message he was trying to get across.
Alux.com your first question is always mine - HOW is Jean michael Basquiat?
Then i remember he is dead.
@Sameer Sonawane Next time I need to know if I like a painting or not, I'll make sure to message you so you can tell me.
I have researched his art for over 25 years... Jean Michel Basquiat is the first afro-latino self-taught art star in the so-called outsider art movement. A high school drop-out turned a worldwide sensation is certainly an incredible phenomenon. He did what Paul Klee, Pablo Picasso, and Wassily Kandinsky in emulating child-like art. In my opinion, he created a very unique urbanized language strictly his own... an original. Very few artists today can be that an original voice, Basquiat is that.
Therese wrong, he was a full Afro-latino, his Haitian/Puerto Rican roots are that... descendant from the Taino and Carib Indian tribes mixed with African and European bloodlines. Both Islands "La Isla Espanola" commonly know as the Dominican Republic/Haiti and Puerto Rico are the origins of both tribes I explained earlier. Those three countries are from my roots as well, as I am Afro-Latino by heritage.
To confirm read Frank Moya Pons's " The Dominican Republic, A National History " all your answers are there....all that other stuff you hear... well just propaganda that is politically fueled by modern society. The Taino and Carib indians dominated the west indian culture in that cluster of Islands.
Yo Yo yes they do.. I'm Haitian born and raised in Haiti. Now in the us for 20 something years now
OH JUST FUCKING STOP IT WITH YOUR FAWNING SHIT - THE ONLY PEOPLE WHHO TAKE THIS SHIT SERIOUSLY ARE OTHER WANKERS WHO WONT ADMIT THE EMPORER IS NAKED..COMPARING THIS SCRIBBLED CRAP WITH THE GENIOUS OF KANDINSKY IS ABSURED..EVERYONE KNOWS YOUR AN EGOTIST CIRTUE SIGNALLING BUT I JUST CALLED YOU ON IT...
Good knowledge brother he pretty much put graffiti on a spotlight and his unconventional art is what makes him so dope not like everyone else and the crown so sick
I appreciate his work. I’m a self taught artist. During art basel Miami 2010 my first painting sold for 8k, I hadn’t looked back
howd you get your art in art basel?
My daughter is 11 and self-taught. Do you have any advice. Says she’s losing inspo since quarantine.
haven't..... gee it's not difficult.
I am self taught myself! Keep doing what you’re doing!
The Black Jackson Pollock!
Fun fact The Weeknd was inspired by his hair style that's why through out some time he rocked the whole "Palm tree" look until late 2016 when he cut it off for the starboy cover of his album
fun fat , the week end is a copy collage of about 5 different artists.
Fun fact: you’re gay
wow who from the culture even cares
No shit
nobody cares about dorks like The Weeknd
@2:08 That is not Basquiat's mother. His father remarried and his biological mother whom Basquiat would visit frequently was admitted into a mental hospital. My art instructor in college made the mistake of saying his mother was white. I was quick to correct her. His mother is a black woman from Puerto Rico.
Matilda Basquiat...yes that is correct... all those other replies are just whatever....
His work seemed like a child could do it but at a closer look, there were so many layers to his paintings. His work was an organized chaos.
@mjGOAT lebronNOPE I mean he drew like that on purpose. There was a rhythm and a style. Some artists are great not cause they’re technically gifted but because they have a unique style.
@mjGOAT lebronNOPE im saying it wasn't just squibbles and lines. it was methodical.
@mjGOAT lebronNOPE what’s your beef bro??
@mjGOAT lebronNOPE what are you talking about dude 😐
@mjGOAT lebronNOPE 😐
His art is sensational, and has stood the test of time because you can see the pain that we all feel, in a perspective that captures his unique angle of sight. I looks like he is visiting a different dimension that we cant see but is definitely there.
which of his pieces do you like the most?
He was a rockstar iconic legend in the art world. RIP Jean Michel Basquiat 🙏😇❤
he captured the zeitgeist of nyc. there was magic in the air, and despite the media's depiction of the city as sodom, it was never so vibrant and creative, and hasn't been since. i miss those days and now realize how special they were...jmb was a product of all that energy and was smart enough to tap into it...we lost him way to early, but then he wouldn't have been jmb if we didn't...
Well said
Zeitgeist, yeah. It was specific time and feel. What was the first painting of his you saw? I am trying to remember the first one I encountered.
He and Picasso changed Art and what was accepted as ART.
And countless others
You could make an argument for Picasso, but I don’t really think you could for basquiat. Picasso created a modernist, more abstract movement that changed the art world as a whole. Basquiat was just riding the greater wave of the New York art scene of the 70s. While I like his art better, I don’t really think they can be compared on that level
Basquiat is the dollar store version of Picasso.
@@andrewhearst4749 but... Picasso stole his whole style from African artist... go off tho
@@honeybutterproductions9186 🙌🏾
Self taught and never to be compromised, basquiat forever🕯🎨🦄
Do you think the best artists are self-taught?
His details are so vivid and electric, u naturally gravitate to things. Uniquely him and authentic craft
he died too young. or he was killed slowly. he was the only person of color in the art crowd. this sounds like GET OUT to me.
he was exploited ..for sure .....
there were /are other artists of color in soho at that time , but he fell in with the wrong crowd ...
it becomes dangerous when the artist is worth more dead than alive ...
thank God he left his best works with his sisters ....
Basquait is a legend his ART will live forever
HES NOT A FUCKING LEGEND - I AM SICK OF YOU FUCKERS AND YOUR VIERTUE SIGNALLING HORSESHIT - I KNOW AND YOU KNOW ITS SHIT SO FOR FUCK SAKE STOP PRETENDING THIS CRAP IS GREAT..
Shaun Clark it is great what have u Done in life piece of shit quit hating
Shaun Clark, lol, why you so mad bro? Because he's black? Because his artwork sells in the millions? You pressed bro? Don't get mad, get Glad. With Glad plastic bags.
Charles Young nothing to do with being black, look up cy twombly

lol "15 Things You Didn’t Know About Jean Michel Basquiat"
...I love how you list all the things that he is most known for. :D
right, but you listen anyway in case there is one or two facts you didn't already know
Instrumentals4Sale RIGHT!!!! 💯💯💯
lol seriously the only one i didnt know was that he starred in a film
EXACLTY! hahaha
Lmfaoo
#16 he's actually kid cudi.
Kasho Gold 😂😂😂
I swear, i was thinking the exact same thing
I said the SAaaaaaaaAaaAaAAAme shiiiiit man
Looks just like em
Kid is just as creative and twice as noble.
Maybe it is a real version of the 2Pac thing?
Thankyou Fab 5 Freddy for introducing us to Basquiat🙏🏾 he don’t get enough credit
Jay -z who…🤷🏾♀️
Thank you for sharing the love...his brilliance is never ending...
His sensational art
ITS SHIT - SRIBBLES AND DOODLES - THE EMPORER IS NAKED JUST FUCKING ADMIT IT..
TRIPLE AAA It's scribbles and doodles shit. In the old days, when talent was a priority, no one would make 2 cents off this childish dribble. We are in a time of deception in many ways, where that which is bad, is now good. But the truth is never subjective- there is no beauty in ugliness, there is not talent in the talentless.
jnorth1000 I’m not saying that his art should be worth how much it is worth, but I still think it looks great. If people spend money on it then fair, that’s their choice to buy it.
The stuff he did as well was quite original as no one had done some those concepts before and how he drew them, like the weird alien characters and the tall black figures.
Some of the stuff he did took hours and hours to draw as sometimes he did use pencil and sketch. I can’t remember the name of it but one of them was extremely detailed it was really dope.
TRIPLE AAA That's cool. if you think it looks great that's cool. I prefer Realism and Impressionism, over Pop Art and the like. If you like it, that's good. I don't want to offend anyone. But others have a right to express their opinion about it, even if it goes against yours. I have better things to spend $110,000,000 on. If it's great to you, then that's great. When I look at it, I'm only impressed at how unimpressive it is. Musta took dude 10 minutes to do most of those paintings.
Okay...maybe 15 minutes
jnorth1000 idk about the 10 minutes thing. the lady whos basement he worked out of said he would be down there like it was a 9-5. I do think people were over praising it to be unique and buy this “new style” because they knew they could flip it. People would buy his paintings for 2k and are now selling them for 110,000,000, thats art collectors for ya.
A true pioneer and game changer wonder who has his publishing and copyrights hope they are taking care of his family so many times they fuck over these icons and profit from their deaths without paying homage to their families. Saw the movie documentary just discovered this brother and I was amazed at his gift! Grew up in the same era but never heard of him until recently wow, he needs to be given the medal of freedom on his contribution to the world of the arts a genuis, they harp on Picasso, Andy Warhol,Michael Angelo and the likes of but he was right up there with them!
I have studied Basquiat for years. I have to admit, you did a fine job in this video in capturing interesting and disparate facts about him, plus the images are excellent. This is quality work.
ITS SHIT - ITS SCRIBBLES FROM A NO TALLENT WHO WANKERS WONT ADMIT IS SHIT - IS ALL EMPERORS NEW CLOTHES - WHO ARE YOU TRYING TO IMPRESS?? THEY KNOW ITS SHIT ..AND YOU SPENT YEARS ON THIS - ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME??
You mad bro? Can i go see your million dollar art yo. Its gotta be AMAZING!
Shaun Clark you’re and ignorant fuck who doesn’t know art from you ass..please tell us who your favorite artist is and why...
Terry Weiss LLP
Shaun Clark YOU'R JUST RIGTH BROTHER!!!
THOSE TWO SUPPOSED ARTIST, ONE WAS A DRRUNK AND THE OTHER ONE A DRUG ADDICT.
His work stands the test of time because his impressionism speaks of truth about our history.
Love from Haiti 🇭🇹
🇭🇹
I love this man’s work...He soared into the art universe in a flash & left the earth too early for us to enjoy his vision🎨✌🏼
True
Annina Nosei didn't offer Basquiat his first solo show. His first solo show was organized by Diego Cortez with Emilio Mazzoli in Modena, Italy in May 1981. Later that year, Basquiat joined Annina Nosei's gallery where he had his first American solo show in March 1982.
His father was Haitian and his mom was a Afro Puerto Rican
god dammit it isn't, " pray for soup!!" it is, "pay for soup_ build a fort_set that on fire."... It was a play on a things to do list.. and it was brilliant in it's conceptualization...about being on the street, being poor on the street, he got soup on a loan and had to still pay for it... so get it right.. Basquiat was like carvaggio in that way he ran on the street
Beautifully enlightening and fabulous display of Basquiat's works of genius art.
I fell in love with his art when I was in my freshman year
Where my Zoes at though??🇭🇹🇭🇹
We’re here lol 😂 I thought I was the only one who likes Alux
Chulo, who is Zoe tho ?
+Lechiffresix six that mean Haitians
We here
Hereeeeee
I recall going to an exhibit of his back in the 80s and prior to going I wasn’t too impressed of his work however once I got there I was blown away by the sheer men’s size of the paintings that’s when I recognize their true power and authority. The exhibit stands out also because it was there that I met Bruce Springsteen! I even drew his caricature in an autographAnd I know at the time that it was brooms to pose for the picture! The curator told me later that it was brooms I was blown away
You(Alux) made a video on Michel Basquiat? You have my respect and thumbs up.
YOU MISSED THE PART ON HOW THEY EXPLOITED HIM.
What happened?...
Sad but true...not that it's very unique :-(
More black people! And diversity ! Loved this
THEY NEED TO DO BETTER THAN THIS SCRIBBLED MESS....
Haha haters

The part about him getting hit by a car while playing basketball is false. There is an interview with his sister who was there and she said he was hit running across the street. This video has quite a few inaccuracies.
EXACTLY He had been playing stickball and his sister called him in for supper..he ran between two other parked cars from one block and back into the street of the other where his house was when he got hit...
Number 16 : Basquiat has a cameo in a Blondie`s videoclip called "Rapture"
Thanks to Fab 5 Freddie!!
one has known this for literally decades
She's also in downtown 81
Just watched it! #legend
@@listentotheanimalscreamsha1511 Yes you' re right
Wow. Thanks for this info on this art legend. I have always been interested in him.
Uno de los mejores sin duda.. Neo expresionismo, street art and expresionismo abstracto .. un niño brillante en su tiempo y en el ahora.. peace for you my people
Critical 27 years old... If you are an ultra-famous artist... Joplin, Hendrix, Cobain, Basquiat and others!
The more I hear about Basquiat the more I awed I am by his visual language and I cannot understand anything but it's cool.
FYI Basquiat is our Andre of Art🙏🏾 we owe them everything may they both rip🙏🏾
One of My favorite artist's. Another member of the 27 club. Too bad.
Bonjour artiste haïtien 🇭🇹
He , at such a young age became a iconic Painter capturing the essence of urban culture at its heights
The picture used to explain the origin of SAMO features NYC artist Keith Haring, not Basquiat's friend Al Diaz. That's significant.
imagine what the suits would cost? if they were still around...armani suit with the paint from jean on it...; keith haring is an icon as well
Art is Everything, Everything is Art! Duane Henry Hoefer Lyon! USA and Manitoba Canada!
Newsflash: Basquiat sisters are having an Exhibition of some of his private writings, notebooks, some private things never seen. There's a video on line with them. I think the show is currently sold out.
My favorite artist by far. Had my daughter August 12th. Kind of a trip...
Right on brother right on. We miss your work fo sure.🐸
His paintings still look very cool , even today ...
They stand the test of time. What was the first one you saw? Can you remember...
@@nuascannan No Im not that familiar with him , Id heard of him . I liked him , but it wasn't to now that Im this age and have a computer that I can research everything .
Love Basquiat because he is an exquisite human being.
And was a heroin addict.
I wonder who ever tagged toy over the samo graffiti realized that that was done by one of the most significant artist of our time...toy is what you did to disrespect someone's illegal artwork in NYC #graffitiwars
thanks Heaps, so nice to hear about The artist not the addiction, yes it may help to shape a person......... BUT it is not the person Thank you again :)
I’m glad you’ll did this video about him
Indeed a radiant child. I intend on acquiring his work in my gallery.
m.ruclips.net/video/2HTRRFhoxOU/видео.html
At 3:46 talking about the SAMO graffiti, it's talking about Al Diaz but showing a picture of Keith Haring. Everyone of these facts were from the Documentary " The Radiant Child" by Tamara Davis
There is a documentary here on RUclips where they talk all about this. It's over two hours. I liked this video so much thank you
where is the video
ruclips.net/video/pjm1pijMKp4/видео.html
I had it on my original channel. But, unfortunately, I received a copyright strike. They waited till It was at nearly 450,000 views. In less than 9 months. Sad, the company didn't give me a warning. My channel wasn't even monetized. And PS. "Slavic Sandie"...Looking good. :) :)
Yes I remember! Because I watche the documentary in the summer of 2015. The new there was an odd period where I couldn't find it anymore. I'm not surprised youtube did that to you. It's like playing monopoly and with the new changes who knows what's next.
I oddly enough; I was set to have a Skype interview with Micheal Holman a week before I received my final copyright strike. I connected with him on a Gray music video. I was shocked he actually replied to a comment I made. :) Living down here in Miami has been an interesting 5 years, but a sad and frustrating 5 years. Oh well. Thanks for remembering me.
Thanks for covering him
Loved this.
My family introduced me to Basquiat last May at the Brant Gallery in NYC. Electrifying, indeed. Just saw the Warhol exhibit in Chicago.....boring until I saw the collaboration between the two.
He was 7-8 playing stick ball 🏀 his sister called him in for dinner and while running across the street he realized he forgot something and turned around ran back into the street and got hit by a car..
He had autism
Also he had just turned 8 but yeah
His visual, sometimes verbal, expression of feelings people would rather conceal, fueling his painterly talent, may have contributed to his rapid rise to fame in the NY jungle.
Yeah, I am thinking the same as I watch him answer questions in a different documentary. I don't think he's evasive, though - do you?
Very interesting !!
He was absolutly brilliant!
I agree
He was playing stickball when a car hit him according to a close friend in a BBC documentary.
I do find it funny that everything they think I didn't know is pretty much all I know.
juan gomez....u said it all, i agree with u very, very special person.⭐
Lakeith Standfield can easily play Basquiat in a 🎥 movie. I would love to see a new movie of his life. Zoe 4 Life🇭🇹
I love this channel so much , I appreciate ur work so much ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ great women
Thank you!
Wait wait wait… “the place where future billionaires come to get inspired… we present Basquiat” 😂
great video!
Pretty awesome ..
The exhibition in NYC closes on
Jan. 1 2023 ... IT IS AWESOME ..
I love you Jean ❤
I've never been a fan of Basquiat's art but I find the artist himself, to be fascinating. I can't help but admire someone who was able to become famous and wealthy while creating such primitive artwork.
Your brain is primitive like your face
Your comment.is primitive
One and only thing that should matter.. TALENTED 🙏
#3 To quote Cosby in his interview with the young Jacksons "Same old New Show"
the best,,, the only REAL American artist....
knew everything here... there is also a few great books out there. grey's full album is here on youtube,,, that band also had the guy who wrote Buffalo66.. that dude is from around where I was born..
Hahahaha naaaa....
What makes him "real"?
hahahaahha totally
Shaun Clark yeah you must be addicted to emotionless scribble go look at a portrait while we like to see the color of emotion.
Long live Jean
Wow amazing such an amazing person
what`s great about him is that he is avantgarde and commercial at the same time. The elite can buy his paintings for hundreds of millions, but we common people can by a pair of shoes with his design on. That is it`s not just " fine art", but also designs that can be used in the everyday life.
I'm into art so i like this dude and his art
Jean Michel Basquiat was a great painter and artist.
NO HE WASNT - HE IS ONE OF THE WORST EVER ..THE ONLY WORSE WERE THE ABSTRACT EXPRESSIONISTS OFTHE 1950S.
Art is about how it makes you feel.. not a literal interpretation.
UpTheFuckingSoy Goyem all music began as banging sticks together friend. Incoherent means nothing in art. Giant Steps by John Coltrane changes keys almost every single measure, is that incoherent to you? Shakespeare made up words, was that incoherent? Art is conceptual, and I recommend that you realize this before you make a fool of yourself again.
15 Things You Didn’t Know *inserts key elements from any basquiat documentary*
Brilliant a true pioneer well ahead of his time but look who he hung out with the master of them all . I love his music crossover & history an inspiration to Banksy too ?
So this was the crown Rihanna used in her album cover looks similar
Basquiat is so unique
Love this guy
I downloaded the album the second she spoke on it. Let’s see how good it is.
Another fact check: legend of Jean Michel-basquiast's "production" of Beat Bop are by most accounts exaggerated. He was present and in the studio and did the cover art, correct. Rap master K-Rob who was the other emcee on the record with the great Rammellzee stated that Basquiat tried to hand them written lyrics which they both tossed aside in favor of them using their own improvised freestyle verse they created on the spot. This i know as true Hip Hop student & educator.
YEP, JUST THE COVER ART...while he stood around high on junk nodding off in the corner.
That wasn't Al Diaz it was Keith Haring.
Yo I love this kid as a character I even taught at the school he attended for four years, a very artsy place, but I don’t understand his art at all!
I remember that cover of the how I became aware of him. Even though I hated his artwork I couldn’t deny his genuis
Why does she keep saying Beat Pop when clearly it's Beat Bop
Queen Deebs bebop dude
Exactly I said the same thing
@@CaratGlobbins No. Beat Bop as QD said above. It's a play on the term 'Bebop'.
its bebop
cowboy bebop
Every piece of his art is chewing your brain and snaring your heart.
I love this video.
