About the artworks:
Jean-Michel Basquiat, Untitled (10-Dollar Bill), 1982
Jean-Michel created this 22 1/4x 30-inch piece using acrylic, oil stick, and crayons on paper. The greens, yellows, and its black border make a detailed yet playful rendering of a 10-dollar bill. Untitled (10-Dollar Bill) is a prime example of how Jean-Michel often explored themes such as money, race, and power in his career.
Jean-Michel Basquiat, Untitled (100 Yen), 1982
Painted in 1982, this piece reflects Jean-Michel’s signature style of combining text, symbols, and raw imagery to explore themes of race, power, and economy. The 100 yen symbol represents currency, a recurring motif in his work, symbolizing capitalism and value systems. The bold, chaotic composition, marked by expressive lines and vivid color contrasts, showcases Basquiat’s deep engagement with social commentary through a graffiti-inspired, Neo-Expressionist approach.
Jean-Michel Basquiat, Two Sided Coin, 1984
This piece explores dualities, a common theme in Jean-Michel’s work, reflecting contrasts like wealth and poverty, power and vulnerability. The painting features his signature use of layered text, abstract figures, and symbols, often referencing currency and societal value. His distinctive style of mixing bold colors with graffiti-inspired elements brings intensity and depth to this piece, reinforcing his complex commentary on the human experience.
About Jean-Michel Basquiat:
