Basquiat Stable — S I M, MAN, Crown
This dynamic composition features a bold, stylized figure with a black face, exaggerated red eyes, and an open mouth displaying teeth, set against a vivid backdrop of yellow, orange, blue, and pink hues. Text elements such as "S I M," "MAN," and a circled "8" appear scattered throughout, interspersed with abstract symbols, crown motifs, and linear scribbles that evoke urban graffiti aesthetics and coded language. Characteristic neo-expressionist traits are evident in the raw, primitive figurative forms, the striking contrast of primary and secondary colors, and the layered, frenetic markings that suggest both anatomical references and street culture iconography. The composition embodies themes of identity, existential angst, and social commentary, channeling the spirit of 1980s New York street art while engaging with personal and collective narratives. This is contemporary decorative artwork inspired by Jean-Michel Basquiat’s signature style, perfect for collectors of urban art, neo-expressionism, and those captivated by cultural hybridity and visual storytelling. Contemporary art inspired by 1980s neo-expressionist aesthetics. Excellent condition throughout. Ready to frame or hang.
