Book: Center-line crack on the spine (photo). Minor shelf rubs on panel surfaces. No page toning, marks or entries on any portion of the book. The book condition suggests that was seldom referenced by the original owner. This book is structurally sound and lies flat, plumb and square (photo). All pages and illustrations are present, with images still sharp and colorful (photo)."This is a survey of the work of Jean-Michel Basquiat (1960-1988), a key member of a group of New York artists who used the powerful images of graffiti to create a new expressive language. Published to accompany an exhibition held at the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York, in 1992-93, the book contains illustrations reproducing paintings, drawings, collages, silkscreens, and constructions, many previously unpublished."
