Jean-Michel Basquiat

These works are registered under inventory numbers 1904 A-C in the Annina Nosei Gallery Archive, Fales Library and Special Collections, New York.

Three large-scale works executed in oil stick on paper, these dynamic compositions exemplify Basquiat's raw, gestural mark-making and his fusion of text, symbol, and figuration. Created during his pivotal association with the Annina Nosei Gallery, the works reflect the urgent, improvisational energy that defined his early career. The three-part format suggests a fragmented yet interconnected narrative, characteristic of Basquiat's practice of layering meaning across multiple surfaces.
