Writing the Future: Basquiat and the Hip Hop Generation
Writing the Future: Basquiat and the Hip Hop Generation explores how hip-hop culture and graffiti electrified the art of Jean-Michel Basquiat and his contemporaries in 1980s New York. The book showcases Basquiat’s works in painting, sculpture, drawing, video, music and fashion, alongside works by his contemporaries–and sometimes collaborators–A-One, ERO, Fab 5 Freddy, Futura, Keith Haring, Kool Koor, LA2, Lady Pink, Lee Qui ones, Rammellzee and Toxic.
