Warhol was awed by Basquiat’s talent Both would come to define the highest echelon of the American art marketplace at auction with Warhol reigning for 30 years until Basquiat took the crown in 2017 with one of his skull paintings selling for $ 110 5 million most ever for an American born artist
Famed for using symbols, including skulls, crowns and masks, and his expressive, large-scale interpretations of Black American life, artist Jean-Michel Basquiatbegan his career as a humble graffiti writer. Working with his friend and collaborator Al Diaz, Basquiat coined the tag SAMO in the late 1970s. SAMO stands for the phrase “same old shit.” Th...
In 1979, Basquiat spotted Warhol dining at the W.P.A. restaurant on Manhattan’s Spring Street with friend and curator Henry Geldzahler. Introducing himself as a budding artist, Geldzahler dismissed Basquiat as too young. Warhol ignored his colleague, buying one of the artist’s postcards for $1. The following year in 1980, Basquiat abandoned graffit...
When Basquiat and Warhol had their first proper meeting over lunch in October 1982, Warhol took a self-portrait of the pair with his Polaroid camera. So the story goes, just two hours later, Basquiat sent Warhol a double-portrait of the duo together, made after the photograph. It was entitled Dos Cabezas(1982), or “two heads.” In 1982, Warhol compl...
Warhol and Basquiat came from very different personal and artistic backgrounds. Warhol was from Pittsburgh and was the so-called “father” of Pop Art: a movement that had begun in the 1960s and which, by the 1980s, was beginning to wane. Basquiat, by contrast, was born in Brooklyn, New York to Haitian and Puerto-Rican parents; he was also the wünder...
Sadly, the breakdown of their relationship came quickly and drastically. In Michael Halsband’sworld-famous photograph, Andy Warholand Jean-Michel Basquiat(1985), the playful competitiveness that characterized the duo and their co-creations come to light, reminding us that each artist was the perfect match for the other. This image was featured on t...
Rumors of physical intimacy between Warhol and Basquiat have been tossed aside by friends and family. A notorious gay icon, Andy can be seen flirting with Basquiat in rare footagefrom the 80s, and it’s clear the pair had a connection. Even so, Basquiat had countless girlfriends — including Madonna — during his friendship with Warhol. Though many ru...
The whirlwind relationship between Warhol and Basquiat has inspired exhibitions, films, and as of 2022, even a play. In 1996, artist Julian Schnabel co-wrote a feature-length biographical drama film, Basquiat. Featuring Jeffrey Wright (as Basquiat), David Bowie (as Warhol), Dennis Hopper, Christopher Walken and Gary Oldman, the film was a critical ...
While many Basquiat x Warhol collaborative paintings are in private possession, the artwork generated by their collaboration that was most recently in the spotlight is Warhol’s Jean-Michel Basquiatportrait. The portrait was put up for sale at auction at Christie’sin 2021. The lot was the most expensive of the sale and beat auction houses’ estimates...
The defining artistic partnership of the 1980s: the king of Pop Art, Andy Warhol, and his protégé Jean-Michel Basquiat’s relationship has gone down in art history as one of the most striking — and short-lived — of the contemporary era.
Also featured are Warhol and Basquiat’s collaborative paintings, which debuted to mixed reviews but reveal the balance they achieved between their disparate styles: Warhol’s advertisement logos and Basquiat’s neo-expressionist strokes and original mark-making.
The story begins in the early 1980s, when the teenage Basquiat frequented Warhol's New York City studio, The Factory, in an effort to infiltrate its social scene. At first, the Warhol regarded the ambitious Basquiat with aloofness. In late 1982, Swiss power-dealer Bruno Bischofberger set up a lunch between them, and Warhol started paying attention.
The critical reaction to the show was poor, with Basquiat being called Warhol’s “mascot” in a New York Times article. Despite harsh reviews, Warhol became Basquiat’s landlord; Basquiat, a heroin user, began taking drugs heavily. It became an embarrassment for the pair to then even be seen together.
