Jean-Michel Basquiat, The New York Times Magazine, 1985

1985

About the Item

Presented here is the rare iconic Basquiat New York Times Magazine 1985: The New York Times Magazine, February 10, 1985 edition famously entitled “New Art, New Money: The Marketing of an American Artist." A must have Basquiat collector's item. Rare as presented here, fully intact in good to very good overall vintage condition. Dimensions: 10 x 13 inches Condition: light curling to bottom area of magazine; well-preserved with sharp colors. This is the full publication presented well intact, with no rips, stains etc; quite difficult to find in good condition. Photo by Lizzie Himmel. Article by Cathleen McGuigan. Unsigned from an edition of unknown. Scarce. Further Background: This much iconic cover photo features Basquiat at his most critical turning point - one in which, the grandeur & height of his success is brought into marked contradiction by an expression defined by a wary, slightly tired defiance; as if he's already begun to perceive all the further judgements and trappings of a notorious 1980's New York art world - a pivotal force in the artist's meteoric rise and fall. A definitive and much historical Basquiat collectible made for any dedicated collector of the artist.

In his work George Washington Carver Crossing the Delaware: Page from an American History Textbook (1975), Colescott humorously conflated the famous Emanuel Gottlieb Leutze painting of George Washington with the pioneering African-American chemist. 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...
