We're thrilled to present this new, exclusive Artware Editions reversible throw featuring the work of Jean-Michel Basquiat. The throw is knitted from super-soft baby alpaca and comes in a beautiful custom box for easy gifting.
Jean-Michel Basquiat (American, 1960 - 1988) is one of the most iconic and influential contemporary artists. His rise to prominence coincided with the 1980s
Neo-Expressionist movement, but he is as much known for his earlier street art. Basquiat's work is full of social commentary, illusory symbols and autobiographical references and often blends meaningful imagery from Caribbean, African American, African and Aztec cultures. Skulls, like the one featured on this blanket, are full of symbolism and evoke African masks and Voodoo while also provoking questions about capitalism, nepotism and the important dichotomy between life and death.

Jean-Michel Basquiat (American, 1960 - 1988) rose to prominence in the 1980s with his neo-expressionist paintings but his oeuvre really began with the street art he made in New York City’s Lower East Side in the mid-1970s. There he developed his improvisational style that appropriates symbols and references from a wide range of sources including music, religion, and history combined with cultural and political commentary to explore the meaning of being African American in contemporary society. His iconic In Italian includes many of these word and symbols - like “crown of thorns,” “corpus,” and images of human anatomy - which point to some of these central themes concerning the individual, religion and mortality.

There he developed his non-linear style that appropriates symbols and references from a wide range of sources including music, religion, and history combined with cultural and political commentary to explore the meaning of being African American in contemporary society. Basquiat often listened to jazz while he worked and his improvisational compositions layered with text and imagery are perhaps inspired by jazz’s complex compositions. His iconic Horn Players (1983) is an homage to two jazz legends - Charlie Parker and Dizzie Gillespie.
