Jean-Michel Basquiat: The most influential American artist-Exposing man's inhumanity to man

Basquiat's 1982 painting brought $110.5 million @sotherbys to become the 6th most expensive work ever sold at auction. His work was blatant, in your face, unashamed, focused and intuitive. Basquiat seemed to carry the weight of the crimes against humanity on his shoulders that would transfer to his paint brush.
