About the Item
Jean-Michel Basquiat Vrej Baghoomian, 21 October to 25 November, 1989:
1st edition exhibition catalog, printed 1989.
153 pages. Cloth binding with dust jacket. 10 x 12 inches.
Very good overall condition with only some minor signs of handling.
This scarce Basquiat hardcover catalog was published from an edition of 4,000 at the retrospective exhibition held in 1989 just over one year after the after death of Basquiat. 69 key works are featured including CPRKR, Red Warrior, untitled Skull and Horn Players. Text by: Francesco Pellizzi and Glenn O'Brien. 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.
