Contemporary Offset The Italian Version of Popeye has no Pork in his Diet / 1982 by Jean-Michel Basquiat. Copyright @ Estate of Jean-Míchel Basquiat. Licensed by Artestar, New York. Published by King & McGaw. Printed in Uk. Jean-Michel Basquiat (New York, December 22, 1960-ibidem, August 12, 1988) also known as SAMO, was an American artist of Haitian and Puerto Rican descent. In Basquiat's short but intense pictorial activity, three stages can be distinguished: From 1980 to 1982, a time when sign graffiti mixed with street visions and symbolic forms of primitive cultural traditions, such as masks, skeletons and skulls. From 1982 to 1985, with works populated by word-concepts, voodoo, totemic and archaizing images, portrait-homages to black heroes - jazz musicians, writers, basketball players, boxers - and references to American consumer society. From 1986 to 1988, a period with paintings increasingly sophisticated in their contents and in their complex pictorial figuration, resolved with multiple and fragmentary quotations from primitive or ancient cultures (African, Aztec, Egyptian, Greco-Roman, etc.), but also from the European pictorial tradition. As he himself stated on more than one occasion, his work was closer to painting, a painting halfway between gestural and warm abstraction and post-pop figuration than to graffiti ("My work has nothing to do with graffiti. It is part of painting. I have always painted."). Measurements: 28 x 36 cm. All posters are original and have been selected by art lovers for art lovers. Collector's item. This item is shipped certified with a tracking number and carefully protected. Welcome to our Cannaregio Gallery, where the biggest names in art, fashion, design and film converge.
