Jean-Michel Basquiat was one of the most important exponents of American graffiti art, managing to bring this movement from metropolitan streets to art galleries. The Andy Warhol and Keith Haring influences, Pablo Picasso, Robert Rauschenberg and Jean Dubuffet – in short 28 years of his life – are stylistic fingerprints of Graffiti, Contemporary Art, Neo-Expressionism and Primitivism, highly visible in each of its colorful walls. In the early eighties, Lee Jaffe (versatile artist who has animated the New York culture), meets Michel Basquiat, capturing precious frames of their trips to Switzerland, Thailand and Japan.
In Bologna, until 15 June 2016 (via Santa Margherita 10), ONO Contemporary Art presents “Basquiat for Lee Jaffe”, a photographic documentation that allows us to observe the early years of the career of Jean-Michel Basquiat through Lee Jaffe images the multi-talented creative who has seen shrinking – in its complex artistic evolution – the dividing lines between the arts. The wonderful photographs of Jaffe, until 15 June 2016, to offer your eyes the creative process of one of the greatest exponents of street art of all times, even when he did not know Andy Warhol and David Bowie. http://www.onoarte.com/upcoming-exhibition.html
