- Phillips de Pury & Company Chairman, Simon de Pury, presents Jean-Michel Basquiat's 'Humidity', 1982. During his early years in the public spotlight-from 1980 to 1982-Jean- Michel Basquiat's progression as an artist was nuclear. His explorations into the subconscious imagery of the human psyche along with his integration of myriad cultural and anatomical tropes makes him one of the most recognized artists of the contemporary era. Throughout these years, we bear witness to a series of crowned figures living many lives: luminous, thorny, even cubic, and polygonal. Humidity, 1982, comes at the height of Basquiat's unprecedented artistic revelations of the human condition. The painting yields limitless treasures of Basquiat's generous spirit, and his sharp observations.
It has been suggested that the central figure in Humidity, 1982, illustrates Basquiat's friend and most influential mentor -- Andy Warhol. The fright-wig, highlighted with bold white oilstick, is perhaps the most telling sign as it mirrors the famed friseur of the legendary teacher to Basquiat. It has also been suggested that the dynamic and joyful figure to the right is actually the portrait of Swiss dealer Bruno Bischofberger. As their gallerist, Bischofberger had championed both Warhol and Basquiat's careers and nurtured the artistic collaborations between the two. While Warhol and Basquiat's collaborations would come after the creation of Humidity, 1982, becomes a distinctive homage to Warhol and Bischofberger, two men who had greatly influenced the young Basquiat.

Basquiat really has 1000's of paintings!! I have never seen "humidity"
Jean Michel you were magnificent. Your work is amazing. The colors, contrast and the lines are breathtaking. You have inspired me and I hope to make you proud someday. By touching people with my art.
What is so special about the contrast, colors, and lines?
I promise I’m not being facetious, I just want to know what you mean.
There R thousands of basquiats on earth. Only one gets to be glorified ?. I'm a fan of jmb myself. And a fan of unknowns. Folks love my art. They make offers and I refuse. Why because they aren't splurging millionaires. I need my house paid off my truck restored. Hit my thumbnail take a peak millionaires only please...
this piece is so nice.. so free
Could you please elaborate?
what a wonderful expression of humanity through eyes of a artist , it is this which setts us apart , the human , our mind , feelings , how beautiful.
Stunningly Brilliant.
this makes me feel, like a child
Jean-Michel loved Andy Warhol and Andy loved him. You get the feel of joy that Jean-Michel felt about Andy in this painting. Even the nose is like a heart in some ways. Pure brilliance as usual!
And in just about 2:22 minutes of his art work is/was uploaded back in November 14,2012 and tonight/today is/was May 27,2017 and thank you for your commentary
art for the people not the rich
YES.
this is something... I cannot stand the abstract expressionists but I can dig this neo-expressionism. really, really interesting stuff.
How dare you
strongly agree.
Appropriate for this week's weather. Cheers!
So nice video
GeniaL❤️💜♥️
genius
Maha karya Super
cute painting
Andy Warhol! wow
I think people are making up meaning for Basquiat’s paintings....
I think he was the second PIcasso without people noticing
Reminds me of Grover from Sesame Street.
Yeah, or like, with the black costume with the white lines, I saw Gerard Way from MCR.
Coolman
JM: Look, I made a funny painting of that day you said it was humid, like I promised!
Andy: WTF hahahah you really did it! And it looks like it's from kindergarten, too! Brilliant LMAO!
JM: Imagine how people are going to try to find hidden meanings and contrasts in this! *WHEEZE*
Andy: Not knowing you just splattered colors around like a toddler! *WHEEEEEEEZE*
2012: One forgets what a great colorist Basquiat is! The pink in the top left corner! The yellow, orange at the top! You see many different techniques that Jean-Michel Basquiat used in this work. And the whole is a joyous wonderful expressionist masterwork!
True Story many teqneaaks ,CYE Duchamp more, in the moment on his own, FORGET PATH, DIE 2 YOUNG DON'T WANNA *
its a face or rather a skull/head
I am his hero.... He paints like me although he died before I new what texture was. When I express thru colored liquids, solids and sprays... Basquiat possesses my hand unto the canvas of his/my choosing. Sometimes we paint on objects deemed inappropriate landing me in jail or with a black eye. I dont understand the process of the imagination but I am always at its mercy.
oooops ,...sorry,...
Best Wishes,

This really looks like Andy Warhol because of the spikey hair and the red nose.If one looks at videos created not long before Andy Warhol's death one can clearly see the tell tale red nose of an alcoholic.This is strange because I've read more than one biography about Andy Warhol and no one ever describes him as being an alcoholic at anytime in his life.
He suffered from rosacea it's a skin condition.
A big but not good JMB.
yeah it is a nice painting, someone bought some paint and a brush and moved their wrist and hand
No way magnificent. All false praise for business
i can have a 6 year old paint like this, i also sell it for billion dollars each
ok, so do it ;)

herr direktor , how many have you sold to date ?
You are stupid and ignorant. Years of history, from Rembrandt, to Monet, finally we are here. All great artist, all great genius artist, wanted to make art way free. Its not about being like a child. Its about being free, like a child. And improve like a child. Art is not for idiots, but every idiot wanna touch it, and beat it. Coz they dont understand it. And thats making them feel bad about themselfs.
If you could have,
you would have,
but you didn't.
simpleton' s works .
