Basquiat

Painter Jean-Michael Basquiat was the Jimi Hendrix of the art world: in less than a decade he went from being a teenage graffiti writer to an international art star, and then died of a drug overdose at age twenty-seven. This biography charts his trajectory, from his troubled childhood to his volatile passage through the white art world of dealers and nouveau riche collectors.
