Jean-Michel Basquiat was at the forefront of New York’s downtown avant-garde in the late 1970s and 80s. He was known to have pored over the medical textbook Gray’s Anatomy. Much of the anatomical imagery and diagram-like composition of his paintings, drawings, and prints is derived from that interest.
Later he was influenced by the bright, gestural symbology of graffiti. Basquiat’s unique and versatile style is deeply connected to the downtown New York music and arts scenes through his early work as a street artist.
