Jean‑Michel Basquiat (1960-1988) was a visionary American artist who fused street art, neo‑expressionism, and social commentary into raw, symbolic paintings. Emerging from New York’s graffiti scene, he explored race, identity, and power through frenetic lines and cryptic text. His work combined primitive energy with intellectual depth, referencing anatomy, jazz, and history. Basquiat’s meteoric rise and tragic early death at 27 cemented his legacy as a defining voice of contemporary art.
