THE BOY KING FROM KING’S COUNTY: “BASQUIAT—KING PLEASURE” REVEALS JEAN-MICHEL

“Basquiat: King Pleasure” is more about family than anything else. And time, something Jean-Michel Basquiat had very little of. It takes the pharaonic, time-less legend that is the artist Basquiat and reduces him to man, to brother, to son; it returns to him a rooted sense of time and place, a reality of 27 years that, as you move through the exhibition, truly feels like 27 years.
