Product info

Explore the life, work and enduring legacy of one of the 21st century’s most influential artists in Jean-Michel Basquiat: King Pleasure. Created in conjunction with a major exhibit organized by the late artist’s family, this captivating book offers fresh insights into Basquiat’s creative and personal lives through essays, in-depth interviews, anecdotes and firsthand accounts from his sisters, stepmother and inner circle of friends and fellow creatives. Interspersed throughout, you’ll find rarely-shown and never-before-seen paintings, drawings and sketches from Basquiat that capture the raw energy and visceral emotion that defined his signature style, as well as family photos, notes, keepsakes and ephemera collected by the artist. Together, this rich tapestry of text and imagery offers an intimate glimpse into who Basquiat was, both as a prolific creator and a deeply human individual. Structured around key points in his life and career, this definitive biography captures every aspect of Basquiat — including his Haitian heritage and early life in Brooklyn; his meteoric rise from graffiti artist on the streets of NYC to international artistic sensation; his diverse influences, interests, creative pursuits and collections; his iconic collaboration with Andy Warhol; the social, cultural and political contexts that shaped his work; the way themes of identity, race and fame permeate his creations; and the evolution of his signature voice, which still resonates in the art world decades after his untimely death. Whether you’re a longtime admirer of Basquiat’s work or just discovering it for the first time, this compelling and comprehensive portrait of a true artistic visionary is sure to inspire.
