详细信息
让•米歇尔•巴斯奎特（Jean-Michel Basquiat）的传奇一如既往地富有感染力。这位画家是是20世纪80年代的纽约的代名词。他以SAMO的标签首次出现在20世纪70年代后期，在这座城市的墙壁上喷出苛刻的评论和零散的诗歌。他的出现是蓬勃发展的地下圈子的一部分，这个圈子包含视觉艺术和涂鸦，嘻哈，后朋克和DIY电影制作，它们在迅速发展的艺术世界中相遇。作为具有强烈个人声音的画家，巴斯奎特很快就闯入了既定的环境，他的作品在世界各地的画廊中展出。

巴斯奎特（Basquiat）富有表现力的风格建立在粗犷的人物以及被整合的单词和短语的基础上。他的作品灵感来自爵士，拳击和篮球等领域的名人，并涉及神秘的历史和街头生活的政治色彩。因此当被问及他的主题时，巴斯奎特回答“忠诚，英雄主义和街头风”。 1983年，他开始与最**的艺术明星安迪•沃霍尔（Andy Warhol）合作，1985年他登上《纽约时报》杂志的封面。尽管巴斯奎特去世时才27岁，他已经成为当时最成功的艺术家之一。

READ MORE
The legend of Jean-Michel Basquiat is as strong as ever. Synonymous with 1980s New York, the artist first appeared in the late 1970s under the tag SAMO, spraying caustic comments and fragmented poems on the walls of the city. He appeared as part of a thriving underground scene of visual arts and graffiti, hip hop, post-punk, and DIY filmmaking, which met in a booming art world. As a painter with a strong personal voice, Basquiat soon broke into the established milieu, exhibiting in galleries around the world.

Basquiat’s expressive style was based on raw figures and integrated words and phrases. His work is inspired by a pantheon of luminaries from jazz, boxing, and basketball, with references to arcane history and the politics of street life—so when asked about his subject matter, Basquiat answered “royalty, heroism and the streets.” In 1983 he started collaborating with the most famous of art stars, Andy Warhol, and in 1985 was on the cover of The New York Times Magazine. When Basquiat died at the age of 27, he had become one of the most successful artists of his time.

First published in an XXL edition, this unprecedented insight into Basquiat’s art is now available in a compact, accessible volume in celebration of TASCHEN’s 40th anniversary. With pristine reproductions of his most seminal paintings, drawings, and notebook sketches, it offers vivid proximity to Basquiat’s intricate marks and scribbled words, further illuminated by an introduction to the artist from editor Hans Werner Holzwarth, as well as an essay on his themes and artistic development from curator and art historian Eleanor Nairne. Richly illustrated year-by-year chapter breaks follow the artist’s life and quote from his own statements and contemporary reviews to provide both personal background and historical context.
