Why this Basquiat book stands out
This major 1999 publication offers one of the most comprehensive overviews of Basquiat’s drawings and works on paper — an essential, often underappreciated part of his oeuvre. It provides a global vision of the prolific artist’s output, from his early SAMO© graffiti days to his mature neo-expressionist style.

Jean-Michel Basquiat (1960–1988) remains one of the most influential contemporary American artists: painter, draftsman, graffiti pioneer (SAMO), underground icon, and central figure in New York’s 1980s art scene. Like other acclaimed Navarra Gallery publications on Basquiat, this volume remains a cornerstone for serious collectors and scholars.

Perfect for anyone searching for rare Basquiat catalogue raisonné, Basquiat drawings book, or high-quality monographs on his paper works.
