TED talk

Jean-Michel Basquiat was a New York artist who participated in the neo-expressionism movement. Neo-expressionism artwork usually portrays objects in a very abstract way with a variety of colors.  Jean-Michel Basquiat uses a mixture of traditions and practices to develop his artwork that are associated with African art.

The artwork by Jean-Michel Basquiat that I chose is Philistines. I found this painting to be very interesting and engaging. I really liked his choice of color and how he incorporates the different colors together. I felt that this painting related to Genevieve Von Petzinger’s TED talk due to the profound use of abstract shapes.
