Jean-Michel Basquiat and friends
by Sin Sin Fine Art
Location: Sin Sin Fine Art
Artist(s): Roland HAGENBERG
Date: 7 Nov - 28 Dec 2014

During the 1980s Austrian artist, photographer and writer Roland Hagenberg documented the art world in New York, where he met Andy Warhol, Jeff Koons, Keith Haring, Louise Bourgeois, Robert Mapplethorpe and dozens of other renowned artists in their studios. Among them was also Jean-Michel Basquiat whom Hagenberg photographed while painting in his Crosby Street studio. The result was a portfolio of black and white photographs depicting Basquiat’s dark-romantic world with a sense of foreboding: A few years later the painter overdosed on heroin at age 28. At auction houses Basquiat’s paintings are now on level with the most expensive contemporary art works worldwide.
