Jean-Michel Basquiat — 1982/2023
Jean-Michel Basquiat

1982/2023

"1982/2023" is a vibrant screenprint that juxtaposes two dates, likely referencing both the artist's emergence as a prominent figure in the Neo-Expressionist movement and a retrospective moment decades later. Executed on Saunders Waterford paper, the work exemplifies Basquiat's characteristic use of bold gestural marks, fragmented text, and layered color fields typical of his practice. The print captures the artist's enduring engagement with temporal representation and the tension between artistic legacy and contemporary relevance.
