Basquiat: A Graphic Novel delves into 1980s New York and takes you on Basquiat's journey from street-art legend SAMO to international art-scene darling, up until his sudden death.
Cool, talented, and transgressive, Jean-Michel Basquiat's life is just as fascinating as the work he produced. Told through cinematic scenes, this is Basquiat as seen through the eyes of those who knew him, including his father, Suzanne Mallouk, Larry Gagosian, and, most importantly, the man himself. Basquiat is a moving depiction of a troubled artist's life for those interested in both the art and the man who made it.
Written and illustrated by Paolo Parisi.

- 128 pages, 7.2 × 10 × 1 inches
