About the Item
Basquiat at Mary Boone Gallery New York 1985:
Rare 1985 announcement card for the exhibition, 'Jean Michel Basquiat' held at Mary Boone Gallery, 417 West Broadway, New York. Jean-Michel Basquiat’s second solo exhibition at Mary Boone Gallery; held March 2 – 23, 1985.
Having already shown with Gagosian, Annina Nosei, Galerie Bruno Bischofberger, and Marlborough Gallery, Basquiat had already become well-known, and his working with Boone further advanced his notoriety and top-level prices in the booming 1980s New York art market.

Printed in two colors on heavy woven textured card-stock with raised lettering.
Very good overall vintage condition; well-preserved.
Unsigned from an edition of unknown. Rare.
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.

Born Robert H. Colescott on August 26, 1925 in Oakland, CA, he played instruments and saw the work of his parents’ friend Sargent Johnson as well as Diego Rivera painting...
