Primitive Dialogues in Modern Times

I try constantly to improve myself in art matters,cause I think there is a lot of artist around us, maybe ourselves who still don't realize that we have something to express, and the words aren't enough.

 Since I was a kid I really like art, in all its forms of expression -theater, sculpture, literature, music and a long etc.-  It´s took me a loong time decided which artist I preffer, of course I don't have A favorite one, so I will choose one of the long (eternal) list of masters. 

I will talk about a new yorker artists that was an inspiration a lot of people ...its name was Jean Michel Basquiat. 

Borned on December 22 in Brooklyn, 1960, Basquiat was one of the precursor of the graffitti movement in NY in the late 70's, under the tag name of SAMO, he  attracted the attention in the downtown art scene. With a Puerto Rican mother and a Haitian-American father, their roots where always representative on his art.

He cautivate important elite artist. He contributed with different ones, including the famous pop art painter Andy Warhol. As his populatity, their personal problems and the abuse of drugs get increasing.  In August of 1988 Jean Michel died of a drug overdose at the age of 27 years old.

I found  this impresive artist searching on the internet about the history of graffitti. I love the work of Basquiat cause it remind me the primitive manifestation of art, mixted with the power and the bomb of information that it's the city. If u see some of his painting u could see his blowminding  -almost literaly-  The contracts of strong colours put together to throw up a search... or maybe an answer to all the chaos.
