Painter, graffiti artist
Biography
Mother was Puerto Rican and his father was of Haitian descent. In 1977, Basquait started graffiti on the walls of Manhattan, where he put the infamous tag SAMO with his friend Al Diaz. During this period Basquiat made T-shirts, cards, drawings and collages based on his earlier graffiti work, which he sold on the street to make ends meet.
His work was quickly picked up by galleries and in 1982 his first solo exhibition was shown at the Annina Nosei Gallery in New York. A year later, he teamed up with Andy Warhol.
Basquiat remains one of the most important and influential artists of modern and contemporary art. In 2017 his work Untitled from 1982 was sold at auction house Sotheby's for 110.5 million dollars to the Japanese art collector Yusaka Maezawa.
