BASQUIAT X WARHOL AT THE BRANT FOUNDATION
The Brant Foundation is pleased to present Basquiat x Warhol, an exhibition of works from the artists’ influential collaboration in the early eighties. This is the first time this iconic collaboration has been the subject of a major New York exhibition in over twenty-five years.
Basquiat and Warhol occupied two distinct spaces in New York’s 1980s art scene. After their formal introduction in 1982 at Warhol’s Factory, the two would meet regularly, working on multiple monumental canvases at once, resulting in over 160 collaborative works created in the short period of from late 1983 to 1985. This enthusiastic exchange of energy is exemplified in their paintings, which illustrate a back and forth that is both tense and complimentary.
On view until Januari 7, 2024 at The Brant Foundation 421 E 6th Street New York, NY 10009
