Description Cool, talented, and transgressive, Jean-Michel Basquiat's life is just as fascinating as the work he produced.

Delve into 1980s New York as this vivid graphic novel takes you on Basquiat's journey from street-art legend SAMO to international art-scene darling, up until his sudden death.

Told through cinematic scenes, this is Basquiat as seen through the eyes of those who knew him, including his father, Suzanne Mallouk, Larry Gagosian, and, most importantly, the man himself.

Basquiat is a moving depiction of a troubled artist's life for those interested in both the art and the man who made it.
