This dynamic composition centers on a stylized black bird with a bold orange beak and striking yellow eyes, surrounded by repeated text elements and iconography. Words like “QUACK!”, “SALE,” “DOG,” “CAT,” “MALO,” and “EGREGIO” create a layered narrative, while a vivid red block emblazoned with “EXITO” and “SAMO” anchors the right side of the image, referencing Basquiat’s early graffiti pseudonym and themes of success. The piece employs hallmark neo-expressionist features: primitive, mask-like faces rendered in pink with crossed-out or hollow eyes, energetic blue outlines, and a vibrant color palette dominated by black, orange, blue, and red. The juxtaposition of playful animal references (quack, dog, cat) with monetary symbols ($$$) and cryptic text invites reflection on commerce, identity, and social critique. This is contemporary decorative artwork deeply inspired by 1980s neo-expressionist street art and Basquiat’s engagement with symbolism, language, and urban culture. Perfect for collectors of urban art, contemporary neo-expressionist aesthetics, or anyone drawn to bold, provocative visuals with layered meaning. Contemporary art inspired by 1980s street art and neo-expressionist vibed aesthetics. Excellent condition throughout. Ready to frame or hang.
