Book Synopsis


Trade Review
"As an artist, the most precious thing is what’s in the mind. Basquiat’s sentences in this book are so delicate and not wasted. They show his inner world truthfully and precisely, why he was a unique person and a unique artist. I love this book."---Ai Weiwei
"[Warsh] makes the contents sound good, too: 'this book provides a glimpse into Basquiat’s incredible mind . . . . May his words and thoughts enliven your thinking today as much as they have inspired me for many decades.'" * Times Literary Supplement *
"Basquiat-isms contains Basquiat’s most important quotes, which reveal much about his way of seeing and thinking. A great reference book that provides an intimate and personal glimpse into the ideas of one of the leading artists of our time."---Dieter Buchhart, The Art Newspaper
