Boxeo
1986
"Boxeo," created by Jean-Michel Basquiat using graphite, watercolor, and wax crayon on paper, exemplifies the artist's signature neo-expressionist style that merges gestural abstraction with figurative imagery. The work engages with themes of athleticism and urban culture while showcasing Basquiat's characteristic layering of materials and his raw, energetic mark making. This mixed media approach reflects his broader artistic practice of combining high and low art forms to create visually dynamic compositions.
