Basquiat Paris 1998 (vintage Basquiat announcement)

1998

About the Item

Basquiat Paris 1998: Rare vintage original announcement card to the exhibit, Jean-Michel Basquiat Temoignage 1977-1988, Galerie Jerome De Noirmont, Paris, 1998: 6 x 9 inches (folded closed). Good to very good overall vintage condition; contains some hand-writing on inner left area. Unsigned from an edition of unknown. Would look great framed. Original Exhibition Press Release from 1997 (source: Noirmont art production): "... A retrospective-testimony of Jean-Michel Basquiat with a simple and chronological path. Regrouping more than 40 works (drawings, paintings, sculpture) dated from 1977 to 1988, this exhibition aims to introduce to initiated amateurs some never before seen works and permits the general public to better understand the iconography and the personality of this creator... The first room will contain about 10 drawings from 1977 to 1981, the epoch of SAMO. In this exceptional group one will discover the portrait of SAMO, so notorious, yet never exposed, and other creations clearly inspired by comic strips. The main gallery will be exclusively devoted to masterpieces of 1982: Portrait of the Artist as a Young Derelict; Head of a Fryer; Red Scull; Head of the Mandibule. The stairs gallery will show works on paper from 1982 - 1983, affirming once again, if it was still necessary, his perfect mastery of drawing and Leonardo de Vinci´s influence on his anatomy, scientific and technical drawings. On the first floor, a number of works from 1984 to 1988 will be presented, including collaborations with Andy Warhol. These drawings and paintings focus principally on... the iconography of the Black American culture with jazz, boxing, and the symbolic codes of society. The reception will showcase photographs with Jean-Michel; anonymous or illustrated, some never published, they capture his long awaited moments, such as his trip to the Ivory Coast. One will also see exhibition posters. Thus when leaving the exhibition, having seen these authentic testimonies and this assemblage of original works, each one will have the freedom to form his own opinion of the place of Jean-Michel Basquiat in the history of 20th century art."
