Keep your underwear on

+Sugar Venom He said they defaced each other's work. 02:10

Sugar Venom​ Yeah but you are defacing your underwear

and they even mentioned “the master” (referring to warhol), I was like: “Andy was his master?? LOL, wtf was that?”

Wow that's Awesome that you met him, I bet you will treasure his memories forever and ever and ever and ever!

Wow

Sell me a painting

I’d love to look at those

I agree with you 💯 percent!

legends of the utmost pretentious nothing.

So easy to please.

i felt the same

The white man is always trying to subtly insult the black man.

WAVEDUP that’s called jealousy

but he was scribbling all over the bosses paintings

Charlie Rose did the same thing in his interview of Schnabel and Bowie about Basquiat.

what was he like when he wasn’t uncomfortable and on the defensive ? it seems like these interviewers were always kind of making him like that. cant find any footage of him not at least a little on edge

Warhol did not create Basquiat, that's a myth. He was self-made before he ever became friends with Warhol.

A Basquiat movie was already made in 1996.

I agree 100% & they can always make a new one

I absolutely agree!

Ghost Moist Fingerz Ghost fingerz they did a movie its great

Yeah but what if kid cudi is a bad actor

Couldn't agree more.

I tell myself both of these artists are unskilled and juvenile in their technique. Just copy paste or doodle on stuff and it's worth a ton. Modern art makes me sad, and I guess if it's meant to provoke an emotion, that would be it. I guess this is what art has come to after photos came into existence. To each their own I guess; seems like they found a good hustle.

unless you know art history, then you don't need someone to tell you how to feel.

When I'm walking through an art gallery or museum and see something random out of the corner of my eye that strikes my soul and I'm drawn to it like a magnet, it's my body telling me that and no one else. That overwhelming bodily sensation you get when you see something that just resonates so intensely for some reason you can't explain. That doesn't come from anyone else. You can know what is popular while still knowing what ~you~ like.

There's a lot more taste making going on with modern art. Thats why I love the old masters. Even if you didn't know them at all, their work had intrinsic skill, talent, and beauty. Lots of people don't consider a Rothco or Pollock painting to be any good. But nobody could look at a Diego Velasquez painting and deny its greatness.

To be young gifted and black

@@Rainbowsun1 Really ??? He is in this list just because of his colour and that idiotic blm.

Watch the movie "Basquiat" (1996), it's full of that kind of observation. Because he was young and black, many did not take him seriously. But then again, he grew up in a middle class family, his dad was an accountant, and he was a drug addict. Andy was a bully, but a well established artist by the time JMB came on the scene. So of course he would be considered inferior to Andy...at Andy's insistance.

That is very interesting. I will thank you!!

Radiant child gives a better insight

Lioncub Jean Michelle was Warhols superior in every sense of being.

Andy was a very shy boy, and basquiat was a rebel, his neo popart style came from the graffiti world of the New York Streets

He is/was

Catch 22

Check out Alec Monopolys work. That's exactly how i feel not just about him but about every artist who does that. I think they all sell out at one point or another.

Well, you gotta eat. But I totally understand with what you're saying. Once money is involved, I'm talking about 100's of thousands, millions...deadlines to get art, books, movies, etc to be put out makes it less genuine.

Jazzmahen Irsan that says it all

Heroin*

i bet you only recently heard of them

Talking Heads

@@victoriabaker4400 The Staple Singers covered the song, which is the version playing in this video.

ahahahahahahahahaaa. So that makes you one along with millions of other people ... for scribbles worthy of the fridge and done by tons of doodlers all over the planet sketching scribbled faces in their sketch books; the abundance of kids that draw anime pictures are more talented than him. The Tale of Two Utterly Pretentious Ponces one of which so stupid to fittingly go from middle-class to anarchistic poverty to riches... and then drug overdose... Geniussssss!!!! This is after being launched more so via opportune luck and connections among the circle jerk clique of other medicocre conceptual contrivers. Within their narcisissim of so desperately wanting to be "the artist" they actually seem to come across like self-absorbed pieces of shit from a lot of what I read. "I don’t listen to what art critics say. I don’t know anybody who needs a critic to find out what art is"... because not everything is art. Yet he's contradicting himself because the artist is the biggest critic, doing the same thing and dictating what is or isn't art just because they churn out garbage. Agreed that one doesn't need to listen to critics... doesn't mean that one still isn't shit and the reason being is that they think whatever they do is art and shouldn't face criticism because they can't take it; more a mentality of - I don't care to listen to how subjectively shite I am compared with objectivity: whether or not one prefers Sid Vicious guitaring to Jimmy Hendrix, undoubtedly Hendrix is a better guitarist. In this aspect, Warhol and Jean were just utterly vapid.

And to suggest that Warhol needed Basquiat to boost his own career made me ill. Both artists were amazing both alone and together. Awful narration.

@@Tassie85 Yes, their friendship was genuine but the critics of the day painted it as something wrong and suspect. In fact, Basquiat's friendship with Warhol caused him grief from the critics of the day and it upset B greatly.

He also opened his shitpipe for his lovers peckers

MrGaryo78 And?

And I hope they don't let you out of your cage too often.

Ariele Betterton MrGaryo78 please!

+wolfhh21 The door then slammed in his face when Warhol died...

Yes , very much like Hendrix talking .

Martian Subculture . Yes I was thinking the same. Jean-Michel has similar demeanour and way of talking as Jimi.

Yup jimi in art form

both 27 club

Martian Subculture no

That biography isn't very good, I wouldn't rely on it too much.

this sounds so morbid for some reason 😳
