A characteristic work by Jean-Michel Basquiat, 'Ashes' features a central figure rendered in a schematic form, with bold outlines and scribbled details against a yellow background. Text and symbols are scattered throughout the composition.
Jean-Michel Basquiat (1960-1988) was an American artist of Haitian and Puerto Rican descent. Emerging from the New York City graffiti scene in the late 1970s, Basquiat gained international recognition for his raw, expressive style. His work often combined graffiti art with painting and drawing, incorporating text, symbols, and personal iconography. Basquiat's art addressed themes of race, identity, social justice, and the art world itself. He died of a drug overdose at the age of 27. His work continues to be exhibited in museums and galleries worldwide. 'Ashes' is a characteristic example of Basquiat's style. The painting features a central figure rendered in a schematic, almost skeletal form, with bold outlines and scribbled details. The background is a field of yellow, punctuated by patches of grey, black, and white. Text and symbols are scattered throughout the composition, including the word 'ASHES' written on a cylindrical form. The overall effect is one of controlled chaos, reflecting the energy and urgency of Basquiat's artistic vision.

Beautiful print, great quality and love it with the white frame. Delivery was really fast. I've had loads of compliments from visitors as I've hung it in my hallway as the first thing you see when you enter the house. Couldn't be happier.
