WARHOL & BASQUIAT

THE PRINT

In autumn 2011 ARKEN opened a large special exhibition of two American art legends, Andy Warhol (1928-1987) and Jean-Michel Basquiat (1960-1988). The exhibition included individual works by the two artists and more than 100 collaborative works, which Warhol and Basquiat created in a brief, but intense period from 1984 to 1985. The exhibition offered a unique window into an unusual collaboration between two very different artistic temperaments. While Warhol had long perfected the look and style of mass-production and Pop Art, Basquiat manifested himself with a fiercely expressive painting style, a raw mix of symbols and characters growing out of the unpolished idiom of graffiti.
