- Basquiat is one of the most and celebrated artists of the 20th century, having left behind an iconic body of work in his short, productive life
- His works are characterised by a mixture of street art, graffiti and neo-expressionism combined with emotional depth and political statement, which have not lost their relevance even today
- Expressive self-portrait, composed during the time of his comet-like rise in the New York art scene.
