✦内容简介——

艺术家具灵感的作品汇聚于一卷。

艺术家和艺术界的煽动者让-米歇尔·巴斯奎特以他强大而复杂的作品席卷了纽约市，这些作品不懈地探讨了种族、警察暴力和结构性不平等等激烈的社会政治问题。在这本重要的书中，专门介绍了布兰特基金会在其新开设的曼哈顿分馆举办的一场展览，该展览展示了艺术家的主要作品。巴斯奎特的艺术回归了其东村的根源，几十年来首次以他伟大的灵感来源之一的街区为背景。

巴斯奎特学者和策展人迪特尔·布赫哈特汇集了这位艺术家重要的一百件作品，重点关注了巴斯奎特作品中的众多主题中的范例，包括爵士乐、解剖学、体育人物、漫画、古典文学、非洲侨民和艺术史。该展览部分重现了这位艺术家早期的三场重要展览，包括在罗伯特米勒画廊举办的艺术家油画和头像素描展览；他在 1982 年洛杉矶高古轩画廊展出的重要的画布；以及巴斯奎特在东村 Fun 画廊的个展。布赫哈特还深入探讨了这位艺术家所谓的画框画，在这些画中，通常隐藏的木制支撑物暴露在外，这些作品尚未被学者深入研究。通过这种方式，布赫哈特对这位艺术家作品的持久重要性和遗产进行了批判性评估。

The artist’s most inspired works in one volume.

Jean-Michel Basquiat—artist and art world provocateur—took New York City by storm with his powerful and complex works that relentlessly engaged with charged sociopolitical issues, including race, police brutality, and structural inequity. In this important volume, devoted to an exhibition at the Brant Foundation in their newly opened Manhattan outpost featuring the artist’s key works, Basquiat’s art returns to its East Village roots, contextualized for the first time in decades in the very neighborhood that served as one of his greatest inspirations.

Dieter Buchhart, noted Basquiat scholar and curator, brings together one hundred of the artist’s most important works, focusing on the best examples of the many subjects that informed Basquiat’s work, from jazz, anatomy, sports figures, comics, classical literature, the African diaspora, and art history. The exhibition partially restages three of the artist’s critical early shows, including an exhibition of the artist’s paintings and drawings of heads at Robert Miller Gallery; his most important canvases from Gagosian Gallery’s 1982 show in Los Angeles; and Basquiat’s solo show at Fun Gallery in the East Village. Buchhart also considers in-depth the artist’s so-called stretcher bar paintings, in which the normally hidden wooden supports for stretched canvases are exposed, works that have yet to be explored at length by scholars. In so doing, Buchhart offers a critical assessment of the enduring importance and legacy of the artist’s work.
