About

Andy Warhol, Jean-Michel Basquiat Boxing Original 1st printing exhibition poster for the 1985 'Paintings' show, this work is perhaps the most enduring & popularized image of the 1980's New York art scene. Among the most sought-after of Basquiat/Warhol collectibles in existence. A fine example in very good condition, originally obtained directly at Shafrazi during the time of the exhibit. Medium: Offset lithograph in colors on coated wove paper, 1985. Dimensions: 12 x 19 inches Very minor signs of handling; otherwise very good condition and difficult to find as such. Stored flat, well-preserved. Unfolded. Photograph by Michael Halsband Published by Tony Shafrazi, New York and Bruno Bischofberger, Switzerland Provenance: Private Collection, New York. Authenticity guaranteed. History Tony Shafrazi, November 2015: "My good friend, the Swiss gallerist Bruno Bischofberger, had worked with Andy Warhol since the mid 1960s. He got to know Jean-Michel’s paintings and started working with him in 1982 or ’83. There had been a suggestion of a collaboration between Warhol, Basquiat, and Francesco Clemente. Then, Jean-Michel and Andy, very enthusiastically and seriously, went on to undertake a whole processes of painting collaboratively at Warhol’s Factory for a year to a year and half, making somewhere between 70 and 80 large paintings that represented an extraordinary—and very rare in history—body of work. Their joint body of work represented a whole year and half of collaboration and production. It was not an overnight thing. The two artists worked together, one painting over the other, back and forth, and I immediately thought of two people sparring and boxing together, which is how I hit upon the idea of a boxing theme for the show’s advertisement."
