In a few fast-paced years, Basquiat swiftly rose to become one of the most celebrated, and possibly most commercially exploitedamerican naif paintersof the widely celebrated Neo-Expressionism art movement. Despite his works unstudied appearance, Basquiat very skillfully and purposefully brought together in his art a host of disparate traditions, practices, and styles to create a unique kind of visual collage, one deriving, in part, from his urban origins, and in another a more distant, African-Caribbean heritage.
