Riddle Me This

1982

This hand-pulled screenprint exemplifies Basquiat's distinctive visual vocabulary of cryptic text, primitive figuration, and raw gestural marks translated into the print medium. The work demonstrates the artist's exploration of reproducible art forms while maintaining his signature neo-expressionist style and enigmatic symbolic content characteristic of his early 1980s output.
