During these years the downtown New York music scene no wave hip - hop disco funk and club culture shaped Jean - Michel Basquiat as both a musician and an artist. This catalogue for a travelling exhibition explores how Basquiat's painting has parallels in his music (sampling cut - up rapping) and takes a new look at his production as a writer and a poet in light of his connections with the then - emerging hip - hop culture. This beautifully illustrated exhibition catalogue of rarely seen photographs and images sheds new light on Basquiat as a musician exploring how his art and music are related and how they reflect on his identity as a Black artist in the United States the downtown New York music scene and contemporary culture.
