Painted in 1982, considered one of Jean-Michel’s most prolific years, Jawbone of an Ass stands as an amalgamation of his many influences. Here, he references anatomy, boxing, childhood cartoons, historical figures and race relations, all suggesting how painting can oftentimes be autobiographical. Visit the “Jean-Michel Basquiat: King Pleasure©” exhibition to view over 200 never before seen works, including engaging recreations of his studio and childhood home in Brooklyn.
