Jean Michel Basquiat The Radiant Child (2010)

Jean Michel Basquiat The Radiant Child 2010 Director Tamra Davis pays homage to her friend in this definitive documentary but also delves into Basquiat as an iconoclast His dense, bebop influenced neoexpressionist work emerged while minimalist, conceptual art was the fad as a successful black artist, he was constantly confronted by racism and misconceptions Much can be gleaned from insider interviews and archival footage, but it is Basquiats own words and work that powerfully convey the mystique and allure of both the artist and the man
