Jean-Michel Basquiat: The Head—The Mind
An oversize, faux-leather-bound volume presenting a focused selection of Basquiat's energized depictions of heads and faces Among the most recognizable motifs of Jean-Michel Basquiat's oeuvre is the human head. Whether colorful, bald, crowned or simply disquieting, his expressive approach evokes the skeletal aspects of these faces, reminding us of the skull beneath the skin: a memento mori for the modern age. The Head—The Mind explores the artist's fascination with the head as a vessel of identity, emotion and intellect, expressed through raw, gestural lines that capture the tension between inner thought and outward expression. Introduced by Sophia Herivaux, Basquiat's niece, this selection of portraits is interspersed with quotes from interviews and other primary sources, delving into the logic of his works' bold color, energy and cryptic symbolism. Featuring a faux leather cover with a tipped-in image, black endpapers and book block, a ribbon bookmark and more, this Basquiat volume
