Description:

|
Combining the tools of graffiti (Magic Marker, spray enamel) with those of fine art (oil and acrylic paint, collage, and oil stick), Basquiat's best paintings maintain a powerful tension between opposing aesthetic forces; expression and knowledge, control and spontaneity, savagery and wit, urbanity and primitivism while providing acerbic commentary on the harsher realities of race, culture, and society. Cars, cops, street games, and skyscrapers reflect the hustle of the city in With Strings Two. (Source: Gagosian Gallery [website]; https://gagosian.com )
