@@nuascannanSorry for the late response mate 😅I discovered him when I was in art school here in nyc..s.v.a. 2002 I was 27 at the time. Because of basquiat I discovered robert rauschenberg. He's really fuking brilliant. Check him out Incase you haven't heard of him. His art is uncanny mate. Cheers happy holidays yeah..👍🏻🙏🏻
I wouldn't say trash, because people clearly appreciate his work. Something is only as valuable as what people are willing to pay for it. But I can't say I see why. It really seems like he wasn't trying very hard when he created stuff, the presentation just screams idgaf. I think more then anything, people were drawn to his peculiar personality, the hair style, and how he was so different then regular day to day citizens in his approach to life and his work. His uniqueness and dedication to not fit into societal norms made him stand out. Today, you can just walk up and down Hollywood Boulevard and find hundreds of people that match that criteria, but in the early 80s it was different for a person like that to reach the heights he reached in the art world...hence the backlash and racism.
@@kingdomcitizenship5613 u can’t be serious? An idgaf attitude? U must not even understand the piles of references he created. U get to see inside someone’s life, their head, their heart. Art is subjective so if U don’t get it then 🤷🏽♀️ u just don’t get it.
Aww Jean-Michel’s little awkward dance at the end was so adorable😭🥰
I so agree. I keep rewatching that part.
Gay.

I didn't know Debbie Harry was in this. Debbie Harry was the first person he ever sold a painting to - $200
Pretty cool film. Basquiat's my favourite artist 👍🏻💯

@@kimmarie6440 Art is subjective, that goes for the opinion of art as well, not just the creation of it. Do you get that?
