About the artwork:
Jean_Michel Basquiat, King Pleasure, 1987
King Pleasure is the title of a painting created by Jean-Michel in 1987 and the name of a bebop-loving bartender turned jazz vocalist whose first hit, in 1952, “Moody’s Mood For Love,” catapulted him to fame. The song was a favorite of the WBLS DJ Frankie Crocker, who played it at the close of his show every night in the 1970s. Gerard Basquiat, Jean-Michel’s father, was also fond of the tune.
King Pleasure© also refers to the highly acclaimed Jean-Michel Basquiat: King Pleasure© Exhibition that was organized and curated by the family of Jean-Michel Basquiat, with critically acclaimed runs in New York City and Los Angeles. The groundbreaking featured over 200 never-before-seen and rarely shown paintings, drawings, multimedia presentations, ephemera, and artifacts that tell the story of Jean-Michel from an intimate perspective, intertwining his artistic endeavors with his personal life, influences, and the times in which he lived.
