The extraordinary work of one of the most important artists of the 20th century Hardly any artist is as relevant to decisive socio-political debates of the present as Jean-Michel Basquiat. His highly symbolic paintings often took up political themes, criticizing racism, social injustice, and consumer capitalism. His diverse oeuvre reflects how Basquiat set his powerful compositions against hierarchies and rules. The publication will provide new insights into the artist's unique visual language and decode the idiosyncrasy of his artistic ideas.

"Keith Haring and Jean-Michel Basquiat are considered icons of twentieth-century art. Both are known for their idiosyncratic imagery, radical viewpoints and complex socio-political commentary, and both employed signs, symbols and words to explore ideas around race, sexuality, spirituality and other aspects of contemporary life. Keith Haring, Jean-Michel Basquiat: Crossing Lines draws out the many intersections between the artists' lives, practices and ideas. It includes more than 200 images, including works created in public spaces, paintings, sculptures, objects, works on paper and photographs, which are accompanied by new essays and interviews. Keith Haring, Jean-Michel Basquiat: Crossing Lines is a record of and a tribute to the work of two boundary-pushing, highly influential artists"--Publisher website
