Shallow minds never appreciate art. Or seek to understand it. What brings them to the artist is rumors and they still never take away anything about the actual artist but their own prejudices. Smh. Sad but it shows people mind is more on he was gay. Modern minds. People found this man from 50 cent let that sink in. Of course they not going to see this man as the artist he is. People bash him but love Freddie. They call him high but love Kurt Cobain and listen to every word. Even the artist Dali. He still gets mocked. Most artist are bullied by society. Everyone doesn’t see art or depth. So the tabloids and rumors always intrigue the small minds more.

Even the interviewer talks more about him being gay than his “ art “. When ? In many interviews. Then go watch other artist during the time and see the difference. Stop acting like the world care about artist when they are alive. There is many times they mocked him. Even to this day as the “ gay black painter “. You should watch more videos on this dude to see how it was for him not how we trying to make it like his artist journey. He even talks about this. People talk more about rumors than my art .

Which is the point even the original commentator is saying. The likes even recognize that. You choosing not to. To be blind to this great artist life. It wasn’t easy man. He even tells us that but many people say the gay black artist was on drugs and had affairs with Andy: who cares . We talking about art. But to say people care for art is lies man. This video would have more views if people knew more about him. Instead The “ gay “ being all people know about him now is sad man. You don’t even get it. Study this man . Every interview.

A quintessential New Yorker Basquiat like Andre Leon Talley in fashion knew how to play with the white scenester children of the downtown art world. The envy he generated as a black outsider with an inside straight was palpable. Unlike Faith Ringgold who could lay claim to being a black Black artist, Basquiat early on was accused of producing "white man folk art". His support did not come from the black art world, he was not trying to get a solo show uptown at Studio Museum of Harlem. Fame was the drug and there were plenty of white children to sell him even more. A connoisseur of immigrant re-invention he melted down the melting pot, such was the brilliant alchemy of his work. Unfortunately there were and still are social realities that wont melt down and weren't melting down in the early 80's. He paid a heavy price for social isolation with a drug addiction and not a beloved community.

Whoever owns it gets the money . Most artists try to sell paintings to make a living . If for example you bought a Basquiat painting in the 80s for say 500 dollars and you sold it today for millions that is your money not Basquiats . You already paid Basquiat for the painting . Once an artist sells a painting they don't own it anymore and neither does their family . The artist owns the copy right you couldn't make copies and sell them but you can resell an original all day long

What do you mean?

Basquiat was a weird cat. Part innocent visionary, part scum bag. Anyone willing to vandalize the neighborhood with graffiti is a shameless self-promoter. Basquiat never figured out that his complaints about being labeled a "black artist" instead of an artist made little sense because if he wasn't black, the art world would probably not have labeled him at all. He may have figured this out after Warhol died, fell prey to imposter syndrome and spiraled towards his death. He sold Debbie Harry a painting for $200 bucks and a year later was selling paintings for $20,000 as fast as he could crank them out. Too much too fast for a disturbed young man.

Very well put.. I disagree with him being a shameless self promoter. The tags he put up around manhattan were anonymous. Nobody knew who or what Samo was until later on.
