large-scale Basquiat\u2019s Untitled (1982) that Maesawa sold at Phillips last night (May 18th, 2022) for $85,000,000. Maesawa is also the owner of the most expensive Basquiat painting that he acquired from Sotheby\u2019s in 2017 for a record-breaking 110.5 million dollars. Alongside Maesawa, Bernard Arnault, CEO of LVMH, is also an astute collector of Basquiat. In 2021, after acquiring Tiffany &amp; Company, LVMH controversially used a rare Basquiat painting \u201cEquals Pi\u201d to promote the jeweller\u2019s new campaign.\u00a0Jay-Z was also featured in that Tiffany campaign, he is also a Basquiat collector and used to dress like Basquiat at a Halloween party. Among the millennials, K-pop group Pentagon had a song titled \u201cBasquiat\u201d with lyrics goes like: \u201cWe will be a new Basquiat\u201d.

At age of 15, as Jean-Michel\u2019s relationship with his father deteriorated, he decided to move out of home and live a bohemian lifestyle on the street of New York. Downtown Manhattan in the late 70s was a magnet for creative people, along with criminals, homeless people and prostitutes. Basquiat started to hang out with milieus including Madonna, Keith Haring, and Debbie Harry. Actually, at that time, there are hundreds of young artists gathered in downtown Manhattan, they were into myriad disciplines from modern dance to fashion design. That dynamic art scene with plenty of young artists communicating, experimenting, and secretly competing with each other was called \u201cDowntown 500\u201d.

In 1981, by the age of 21, Basquiat has already completed his transformation from a graffiti street artist to a gallery artist, and his work had already been exhibited internationally winning global attention from Zurich to Tokyo.<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p>In Feb 1985, at the epic of his meteoric career, the 24-year-old Jean-Michel got on the cover of New York Times Magazine.

There\u2019s an anecdote that the editor of the magazine had sent the photographer back and forth many times to persuade Basquiat to put shoes on, they even called his art dealer Mary Boone for that particular request, but ended up with that iconic Basquiat portrait in bare

Jean-Michel was usually spotted wearing a geometric Issey Miyake optical in archive photos, and a great proportion of his wardrobe was composed of Comme des Gar\u00e7ons and Yohji Yamamoto. In 1987, Kawakubo Rei invited Basquiat to model for Comme des Gar\u00e7ons fashion show in Paris. He agreed: \u201cI spend a hundred grand a year in that shop anyway\u201d, Basquiat said to Binns.<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p>As an artist, Basquiat is highly observant of the sociocultural environment. In his oeuvre, he repeatedly used the signs of copyright and trademarks that reflect capitalistic values, together with text and images alluding a diverse political, historical and social events. And of course, the hypersensitive black artist also pinpointed the race issue in his works. Irrefutably, there is a dichotomy between the way Jean-Michel was embraced in the art society and the way he was treated in the world outside the bubble.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-158dff9 elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"158dff9\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-7703f3c elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"7703f3c\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-7180113\" data-id=\"7180113\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-af22670 elementor-blockquote--skin-quotation elementor-blockquote--align-center elementor-widget elementor-widget-blockquote\" data-id=\"af22670\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"blockquote.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<blockquote class=\"elementor-blockquote\">\n\t\t\t<p class=\"elementor-blockquote__content\">\n\t\t\t\tYou know why nobody is taking us?

Champagne, and baby lamb, and on, and on. Poor thing! The bill was over $300. He loved to spend, but he shouldn\u2019t have been spending that sort of money.\u201d It was almost, she feels as if he felt guilty.<\/i><\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p>The way he shopped was extravagant, and the way he ordered only the finest food in the finest restaurant was epicurean, but no one would know to what extent Jean-Michel\u2019s excessive shopping manner was aimed to earn homage from that biased society. Ironically, no matter how much he spends with luxury retailers, he can&#8217;t get a taxi on the street of New York. Bult remembered that night after dinner, \u201cSeveral (taxies) went by, two of the drivers were black, but nobody would take him. Jean-Michel turned to me and said, You know why nobody is taking us? It\u2019s because I\u2019m black. Can you get a taxi?\u201d Bult swiftly got a taxi. She remembered what Basquiat was wearing that night standing by the street: \u201ca floppy black suit from Yohji Yamamoto, an open white shirt, a straight-brimmed black
