“I would say that Jean-Michel had more raw talent as an artist than anyone I’ve ever met in my life.”
Jeffrey Deitch - Art dealer and curator

Jean-Michel Basquiat remains to be one of the most talked about artists of the last 40 years. In the 80's he amassed a cult following taking New York and then the world by storm. Basquiat's artworks are housed in both major public and private collections that include The Whitney in New York and Abu Dhabi's Guggenheim to Jay Z and Ellen de Generes.

Passing away prematurely at just 27, he has left his mark on the world as his legacy continues to grow in strength and relevance throughout the current art market.

Come with us and explore his investment capabilities and why Basquiat is a true contemporary legend.
