Sinopsis

Andy Warhol and Jean-Michel Basquiat's complex relationship captivated the art world then and now. At a time when Warhol was already world famous and the elder statesman of New York cool, Basquiat was a downtown talent rising rapidly from the graffiti scene. Together, they forged an electrifying personal and professional partnership.

As a prolific documentarian of his own world, Warhol extensively photographed and wrote of his friendship with Basquiat, all played against the backdrop of 1980s downtown New York City. It reveals not only the emotional depth of their relationship but also its ambiguities, extremities, and complexities.

Produced in collaboration with The Andy Warhol Foundation and Jean-Michel Basquiat's estate, this book chronicles the duo's relationship in hundreds of previously unpublished photographs of Basquiat along with a dynamic cast of characters from Madonna to Grace Jones, Keith Haring to Fela Kuti. The shots are accompanied by entries from the legendary Andy Warhol Diaries, selected collaborative artworks, and extensive ephemera. Touching, intimate, and occasionally sardonic, Warhol on Basquiat is a voyeuristic glimpse into the lives of two of modern art's brightest stars.

La compleja relación entre Andy Warhol y Jean-Michel Basquiat ha cautivado al mundo del arte de ayer y de hoy. Warhol ya era famoso en todo el mundo y Basquiat, una suerte de embajador extraoficial del Nueva York más cool, era un talento del downtown que emergía rápidamente de la escena grafitera. Juntos forjaron una asociación personal y profesional electrizante.

Warhol, un prolífico documentalista de su propio mundo, fotografió y escribió con profusión sobre su amistad con Basquiat con el Nueva York de la década de 1980 como trasfondo, revelando no solo la profundidad emocional de su relación sino también sus ambigüedades, diferencias y complejidades.

Producido en colaboración con la Fundación Andy Warhol y los herederos de Jean-Michel Basquiat, este libro narra la amistad de la pareja en cientos de fotografías inéditas de Basquiat con un nutrido grupo de personajes que van de Madonna a Grace Jones y de Keith Haring a Fela Kuti. Las imágenes vienen acompañadas de entradas de los legendarios Diarios de Andy Warhol, una selección de obras artísticas que Warhol y Basquiat realizaron juntos y numerosos recuerdos. Conmovedor, íntimo y a veces incluso sarcástico, Warhol on Basquiat es una mirada voyerista a las vidas de dos de las estrellas más brillantes del arte moderno.
