Jean-Michel Basquiat was an American artist who rose to prominence in the 1980s as part of the Neo-expressionism movement. Initially gaining fame as part of the graffiti duo SAMO in the late 1970s, he became known for his enigmatic epigrams and exploration of diverse themes such as wealth and poverty, integration and segregation. His work mixed poetry, drawing, and painting, often incorporating social commentary on race, colonialism, and power structures. He became the youngest artist to participate in documenta and the Whitney Biennale, achieving international acclaim for his impactful visual art.
