About the Item

Jean-Michel Basquiat Bearbrick 1000% Vinyl Figure (Basquiat Crown): A well-sized (27 inch), sleek & elegant Bearbrick Basquiat statue piece, trademarked & licensed by the Estate of Jean-Michel Basquiat. The partnered collectible reveals the late iconic artist’s estate licensed 1980s iconic crown wrapping the figure in its entirety. Housed in a unique Basquiat collectors box. Sold out. Highly collectible. Medium: Vinyl Figurine. Year: 2021. 27.5 x 14 inches. New, never displayed; accompanied by original packaging. Published by Medicom from a sold-out limited series of unknown. Stamped on the underside of foot. Further Background: BE@RBRICKs are a form of collectible toy that resemble a cross between LEGO and well, a bear. These block-style figurines boast teddy bear-style heads that have become an integral pillar of the collectible toy scene. In fact, it wouldn’t be so far-fetched to say that it almost single-handedly carved out the fad of toy collecting in modern times, treading the very fine line between toy and art. Since its inception, BE@RBRICKs have become one of the most recognizable characters in the world, and some of the most sought after. Please note exact patterns may vary. Jean-Michel Basquiat’s dramatic life and iconic paintings—which variously feature obsessive scribbling, enigmatic symbols and diagrams, and iconography including skulls, masks, and the artist’s trademark crown—make him one of the most famous artists of the 20th century. The self-taught painter embraced graffiti before committing to a studio practice. He found a mentor and friend in Andy Warhol, who helped the young artist navigate the 1980s New York art world. Across his oeuvre, Basquiat drew on his own Caribbean heritage; a convergence of African American, African, and Aztec cultural histories; classical themes; and pop cultural figures including athletes and musicians. The immediacy and intellectual depth of his paintings won him widespread acclaim both before and after his untimely death at the age of 27. Basquiat’s paintings now belong in the collections of the Museum of Modern Art, the Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles, the Whitney Museum of American Art, and the Metropolitan Museum of Art, among others. In 2017, Basquiat’s Untitled (1982) notched $110.5 million at auction and became the most expensive artwork by an American artist to ever be sold.
