May 17, Garage will be showing a documentary Tamra Davis film "Basquiat. Radiant Child" . Good good movie that conveys the atmosphere of the time. Valuable memories of friends, friends, gallery owners and collectors without stalling in pathos. Of the three key figures in the New York abstract neoekspressionizme (Keith Harring and Jean-Michel Basquiat, Kenny Scharf), survived only a scarf. Others have behaved like a "star rock 'n' roll." Basquiat, obviously, did not cope with money and fame. Conventional wisdom simply nowhere to take it. And people who are able in time to the right brain was not around. Overdose at age 27. One day, just could not get through to him.
Basquiat and to this day one of the most commercially successful contemporary artists. In 1986-88 years the standard estimate for the seven foot canvases was 20-25 thousand dollars in 1990 - have 150-400 thousand dollars today of Basque are usually about 4-5 million dollars.
Around 6 years of studio work Basquiat created about 1000 for fabric and about 1000 drawings. It very much. And very little.
Glenn. 1985. Acrylic on canvas. 254x289. Estimate: 600-800 thousand dollars Result: 660 thousand dollars Christie's. 16.05.2000
