Contemporary Masters

Jean-Michel BasquiatPlush Safe He Think
“I was trying to communicate an idea; I was trying to paint a very urban landscape. I was trying to make paintings different from the paintings that I saw a lot of at the time, which were mostly minimal, and they were highbrow and alienating, and I wanted to make very direct paintings that most people would feel the emotion behind when they saw them.”
JEAN-MICHEL BASQUIAT
