內容簡介

內容簡介 1980年代美國最重要的塗鴉藝術與新表現主義(Neoexpressionism)畫家Jean-Michel Basquiat重要的作品集。Jean-Michel Basquiat(1960-1988)出生於紐約的布魯克林，是1980年代美國最重要的藝術家之一，他的整個創作生涯都在探索文字與圖像之間的互動。剛開始，他作為1970年代後期活躍於紐約下東城區塗鴉團體SAMO的一員，然後以新表現主義的風格而聞名，作品獨樹一格。本書以摺頁、偷拍 快拍攝影、全版的彩色裝置攝影，來紀念Basquiat短暫而絢爛的藝術生涯。數十張黑白或彩色的歷史照片，連結了文字與近60幅畫作，提供了這位影響力深厚的藝術家其人其作的深入觀察。藝術史學家Robert Farris Thompson詳細地分析了Basquiat數件最重要的繪畫，Thompson不僅把這些繪畫放在Basquiat本身作品的脈絡來研究，更把它們放在更大的20世紀藝術的地貌中來分析。書的最後一個部分，收錄詩人兼藝術家，也是安迪．渥荷門徒的Rene Ricard 對Basquiat私人世界罕見而精確地驚鴻一瞥，提及從1981年他們的初次見面到1988年Basquiat過世之間，兩人張力十足的友誼。Featuring foldouts, candid photographs, and full-page color installation shots, this beautiful new book celebrates the work of Jean-Michel Basquiat over his brief but meteoric career. Dozens of historical photographs, both black-and-white and color, connect the text with the close to sixty color plates, providing invaluable insight into the life and work of this seminal artist. Art historian Robert Farris Thompson delivers a detailed analysis of some of Basquiat's most iconic paintings, situating them within the artist's own oeuvre, as well as the larger landscape of twentieth-century art. Rounding out this stunning volume, the late Rene Ricard provides a rare but accurate glimpse into the private world of Basquiat, recounting their sometimes fraught friendship, from their first meeting in 1981 to Basquiat's death in 1988.
