Jean-Michel Basquiat was born in New York City, on this day, December 22, in 1960. On the occasion, we are highlighting the exhibition “King Pleasure©," which is on view at the Starrett-Lehigh Building in New York through January 1, 2023. Organized and curated by the family of the artist, this show of more than two hundred never-before-seen and rarely shown paintings, drawings, and artifacts tells the artist's story from an intimate perspective. With an exhibition design by Adjaye Associates (@adjayeassociates), immersive environments showcase the artist's contributions to the history of art and his explorations of multifaceted cultural phenomena providing insight into his creative life and his singular voice.
