A raw and electrifying work from Basquiat's most celebrated period, 'Furious Man' (1982) depicts a skull-like figure rendered in black with expressive gestural marks, surrounded by a chaotic field of color including yellow, pink, orange, and green. The composition features Basquiat's signature iconography — a halo-like yellow arc, a pentagram star, and frenetic cross-hatching — all hallmarks of his neo-expressionist visual language. Created on paper with oilstick, acrylic, wax crayon, and ink, the work exemplifies his ability to fuse graffiti aesthetics with fine art tradition. Held in the distinguished collection of Susan and Jerry Lauren, New York, this piece is a museum-caliber example from the artist's most sought-after year.
