Filmed in Europe, the United States and Australia in 1985-6, the six programmes feature many key artists including -- in addition to Basquiat and Warhol -- Cindy Sherman, Antony Gormley, Hans Haacke, Eric Fischl and Joseph Beuys. The films also explore the intellectual context of the time and the ideas of post-modernism.

Illuminations, which made "State of the Art" from which this sequence comes (shot in 1986), also produced "Shooting Star" in 1990, largely because we'd met Jean-Michel on the earlier production. I regret that, largely because of rights issues, "Shooting Star" isn't currently available.
I hate what the interviewer had to say. Saying that Basquiat "defaced" Warhol's art and by portraying Basquiat as someone who simply got lucky. This is completely false but never the less, I love Basquiat with all my heart. Its nice to see him in interviews (which are hard to find), alive and speaking. His voice, the quality an texture of it; it makes me love him more.
Keep your underwear on

He said they defaced each other's work. 02:10
Sugar Venom Yeah but you are defacing your underwear
and they even mentioned “the master” (referring to warhol), I was like: “Andy was his master?? LOL, wtf was that?”
I met Jean 3 or 4 times the last time after the Vrej Baghoomioan Show in April 1988...One of the most generous ,intelligent,kind, soft hearted and gentle souls that I have ever met...I purchased over 40 drawings and several paintings from him...I helped him in the day,and now that time has passed,he has helped me,just by collecting his art.I feel blessed.
Love you Jean,think of you everyday.
Wow that's Awesome that you met him, I bet you will treasure his memories forever and ever and ever and ever!
Wow
Sell me a painting
I’d love to look at those
He's so soft-spoken. Brilliant, beautiful mind and spirit which was just as sad, you can see it all in his eyes.
I agree with you 💯 percent!
Don't like the way the narrator is subtly disrespecting Basquiat
i felt the same
The white man is always trying to subtly insult the black man.
WAVEDUP that’s called jealousy
but he was scribbling all over the bosses paintings
Charlie Rose did the same thing in his interview of Schnabel and Bowie about Basquiat.
Basqiuat and Andy are legends!!!
Dievi BASQUIAT & WARHOL (prod. me) soundcloud.com/thisisddb/ddb-basquiat-warhol-prod-ddb
legends of the utmost pretentious nothing.
So easy to please.
Jean-Michel Basquiat would've turned 60 on December 22. R.I.P. JMB (December 22, 1960 - August 12, 1988)
I knew Basquiat as a friend.... He was a very wonderful, fresh young artist. Extremely creative.
Sad to read some of the posts here.
Do you all want to live in a lifeless, artless , Low sodium-gravy- in- a -can world???
what was he like when he wasn’t uncomfortable and on the defensive ? it seems like these interviewers were always kind of making him like that. cant find any footage of him not at least a little on edge
R.I.P. Andy Warhol and Jean Michel Basquiat!!
If they did a movie kid cudi can play him
A Basquiat movie was already made in 1996.
I agree 100% & they can always make a new one
I absolutely agree!
Ghost Moist Fingerz Ghost fingerz they did a movie its great
Yeah but what if kid cudi is a bad actor
Jean-Michel Basquiat was the Artist I chose to study for my GCSE art exam. Our teacher told the class to choose an Artist whose work we found interesting. But I new that wouldn't be enough to interest me. Because to me art is about the Painter and not the painting. So instead I chose an Artist who I thought was an interesting person. And as soon as I came across Basquiat I automatically knew I would be studying him. I did a self portrait in his style. Only thing I ever got an A for in my life.
thankfully basquiat surpassed to be another one of andys factory superstar
Warhol did not create Basquiat, that's a myth. He was self-made before he ever became friends with Warhol.
All art is loved or hated because someone else told you to feel that way.
Couldn't agree more.
I tell myself both of these artists are unskilled and juvenile in their technique.
Just copy paste or doodle on stuff and it's worth a ton.
Modern art makes me sad, and I guess if it's meant to provoke an emotion, that would be it.
I guess this is what art has come to after photos came into existence.
To each their own I guess; seems like they found a good hustle.
unless you know art history, then you don't need someone to tell you how to feel.
When I'm walking through an art gallery or museum and see something random out of the corner of my eye that strikes my soul and I'm drawn to it like a magnet, it's my body telling me that and no one else. That overwhelming bodily sensation you get when you see something that just resonates so intensely for some reason you can't explain. That doesn't come from anyone else. You can know what is popular while still knowing what ~you~ like.
There's a lot more taste making going on with modern art. Thats why I love the old masters. Even if you didn't know them at all, their work had intrinsic skill, talent, and beauty. Lots of people don't consider a Rothco or Pollock painting to be any good. But nobody could look at a Diego Velasquez painting and deny its greatness.
This is racist, why is Basquiat automatically Andys inferior and a "streetsmart rebel". They made things together that makes them by definition EQUAL.. God this is annoying
Watch the movie "Basquiat" (1996), it's full of that kind of observation. Because he was young and black, many did not take him seriously. But then again, he grew up in a middle class family, his dad was an accountant, and he was a drug addict. Andy was a bully, but a well established artist by the time JMB came on the scene. So of course he would be considered inferior to Andy...at Andy's insistance.
That is very interesting. I will thank you!!
Radiant child gives a better insight
Lioncub Jean Michelle was Warhols superior in every sense of being.
Andy was a very shy boy, and basquiat was a rebel, his neo popart style came from the graffiti world of the New York Streets
Know how it feels to be caught up in the drugs and alcohol. Clean and sober 19 years this past June. Basquiat was born in 1960 the same year I was born. Feels like I lost a brother. Would have truly been something if he were alive today.😟
🍀
Not all the Warhol's crowd gave Basquiat fame... let's all remember Mr. Rene Ricard, Ms. Annina Nosei & Mr. Bruno Bischofberger as well. And thanks to Julian Schnabel, that gave us a somewhat look at Basquiat life & paintings. I remain a fan. Godspeed & Peace to all.
I still have no idea why so many people hate this man.
To be young gifted and black
@@Rainbowsun1 Really ??? He is in this list just because of his colour and that idiotic blm.
Such a powerful collaboration - it's difficult to conceive of any two artists being able to complement and elaborate on each other's work like this -
like you said - the shaman & the wizard!
at the time it was warhol chasing basquiat- no disrespect intended. nothing wrong in chasing basquiat - his energy everything about him ... i always thought jimi hendrix was the shortest way of describing what it felt like watching him walk , work , talk -his genius which i was lucky enough to witness a few times. 83/4
He was so young but yet so creative and so gifted, coming from nothing using his thoughts and experiences to creat amazing art
Basquait was an "outsider" brought in to the established art world,which is a fickle, and cut throat world at the best of times. His autism was definitely a driving force,for sure. Warhol was a 'bridge' for a lot of "outsiders" but you gotta bare in mind, those who entered,had to be made aware that it was just that,a factory! Check out Duchamp and the Dadaists it might go some way to "educating" you in the many layers (no pun intended) of art mediums and practices within different cultures. Pablo Picasso with his "cubism" or check out DeKooning. This is why I love art personally,it raises questions and gives answers,but you got to dig deep sometimes.
I love Andy Warhol. He's a good guy. Even his work looks like it has been done by nice people.
When an artist becomes an icon, I wonder how much of what he does is genuine and how much is just to make a lotta dough. It feels like money ruins art, because the goal of the art becomes money. So, the simple fact that art sells is bad. But also, how else could an artist make money? Maybe it's just what it is: a challenge.
Catch 22
Check out Alec Monopolys work. That's exactly how i feel not just about him but about every artist who does that. I think they all sell out at one point or another.
Well, you gotta eat. But I totally understand with what you're saying. Once money is involved, I'm talking about 100's of thousands, millions...deadlines to get art, books, movies, etc to be put out makes it less genuine.
.
Jazzmahen Irsan that says it all
When I see this clip it makes me realize how well done the movie was.
I just bought 2 shirts featuring the crowned dinosaur i love him. Rest in peace🤴
I love how JMB says "Do you have to rub us down". LOL.
Basquiat's work is a prime example of, you don't have to be perfect in order to be a good artist, it's the thought within each creation that makes all the difference. Basquiat's creativity showed that even the most unusual ideas & subjects can be the most interesting. And that's saying a heck of a lot.
Andy looks so pale and fragile in his final years. :( But he was still so young.
..I wish he were still around but his legacy continues. (: Whenever we see a soup can or a coca cola or even a multi colored marilyn monroe painting there can only be one genius who comes to mind.
I stayed with Paul Andy's bro ,at his private farm in the section of Smock,PA..Paul,Andy's oler brother and his wife Madeline were absolutely wonderful to me.Paul gave me 2 of his paintings for 'Absolut Vodka', with his trademark 'chicken foot stamps', and a Campbell's 'Pepper Pot', painting on paper,which I am offering for sale next month.
Best to all Warhol fans and do not forger Jean Michel.still have a few of his drawings kicking around somewhere.
Cheers!

He was an insightful contemporary artist that really earned significant attention and deservedly still does today. Art and commerce is always a very sexy and dangerous combination that had in many ways resulted in his death. He will be missed. In the 90's came the turning point in NYC. With money, real estate values, and status as important as it became here , much of the character and characters of the city had vanished. Here's to the future. Hope.
They are real artists for the legacy they left behind. They mark the art history, you can find them in any famous museum around the world. The world made them famous without asking you if they deserve it or not. I like their art or not, they are still artist. Anyway, I will check your creations to see what are U up with. For the rest of us, the art is so different and wonderful. Is nice to feel it ! Colors, music, love and peace for everybody !
Basquiat was a revolutionary for street art, as was Warhol to typical traditional art. I accept yor opinion, as I do of mine. Art is expression, expression to emotion, life, politics and much more, these two men carried what they believed to be art to them. Any man with will and a love for art recieves much respect.
Basquiat. What a great talent! NY misses you!
Wow, a lot of haters and ignoramuses out there.
This captures the moment perfectly. The tensions between Basquiat and everyone else, including the gallery owner, Warhol and the fotogs through subtle and not so subtle gestures tells you a lot about the 80s f'ed up art world and how Basquiat was getting boxed in and pushed to sell his soul.
Anyway, even if you don't like, or are repulsed by the art, this can be appreciated as a historical reference.
"A sacrificial child." "Wild child," this was ugly. The narrator is horrible. This is nasty and unessary. Mr. Jean-Michel was young, gorgeous and smart!
And to suggest that Warhol needed Basquiat to boost his own career made me ill. Both artists were amazing both alone and together. Awful narration.
@@Tassie85 Yes, their friendship was genuine but the critics of the day painted it as something wrong and suspect. In fact, Basquiat's friendship with Warhol caused him grief from the critics of the day and it upset B greatly.
Why do people assume that art is about how detailed a painting is or how nice it looks? Art is about expression, when can gogh painted people told him his paintings sucked because it wasn't some big detailed historical piece. There is no problem with realism in paintings if that is the artists preferred medium but people shouldn't assume all great art is a big historical epic or something.
I Hobnob with the Hobnobbers. Classic! Warhol is my dream piece for my collection. I may do my own custom like homage to Warhol like Basquiat did, only I want it to look like a Warhol
So weird how they both died within two years of each other.
ah i love basquiat.
his paintings are exciting
and my was he handsome ^^
Basquiat is so talented. I wish he had survived the art machine.
Heroin*
I'm not knowledgeable about art ar all - but I love Basquiat. His paintings really make me feel something. Idk what it is but I get lost looking at them. Deeply
i hate what they were saying about basquiat i hate it soo much
Andy and Jean were inspirational. TWOMADCYA was blessed to have met Andy. Sorry to have missed Jean
what a relationship...
two genius met
He's adorable
He is/was
a year before i was born
He's amazing.I cant believe I've never heard of him :(
One of the originators of Typography.
Thats what makes him GREAT.
Plus he was always high on something just like Warhol.
That was how they can always make sense of the work they produced.
Basques it and Andy = here to stay.
Hi Montreal. Andy’s back home ❤
A tale of two geniuses
ahahahahahahahahaaa. So that makes you one along with millions of other people ... for scribbles worthy of the fridge and done by tons of doodlers all over the planet sketching scribbled faces in their sketch books; the abundance of kids that draw anime pictures are more talented than him. The Tale of Two Utterly Pretentious Ponces one of which so stupid to fittingly go from middle-class to anarchistic poverty to riches... and then drug overdose... Geniussssss!!!! This is after being launched more so via opportune luck and connections among the circle jerk clique of other medicocre conceptual contrivers. Within their narcisissim of so desperately wanting to be "the artist" they actually seem to come across like self-absorbed pieces of shit from a lot of what I read.
"I don’t listen to what art critics say. I don’t know anybody who needs a critic to find out what art is"... because not everything is art. Yet he's contradicting himself because the artist is the biggest critic, doing the same thing and dictating what is or isn't art just because they churn out garbage. Agreed that one doesn't need to listen to critics... doesn't mean that one still isn't shit and the reason being is that they think whatever they do is art and shouldn't face criticism because they can't take it; more a mentality of - I don't care to listen to how subjectively shite I am compared with objectivity: whether or not one prefers Sid Vicious guitaring to Jimmy Hendrix, undoubtedly Hendrix is a better guitarist. In this aspect, Warhol and Jean were just utterly vapid.
anyone else reminded of jimi hendrix at the start?
Yes , very much like Hendrix talking .
Martian Subculture . Yes I was thinking the same. Jean-Michel has similar demeanour and way of talking as Jimi.
Yup jimi in art form
both 27 club
Martian Subculture no
He's One Artist That Stand's out from the Crowd. He's so Unique & Godly Gifted with his Mind & Hands Incredible.
Colours just Takes em & ideas are from Another Planet!
I love these two
i bet you only recently heard of them
Thank you so much for uploading this
Loved the jazz song in the beginning
love that they're listening to the staples cover of "slippery people" by the talking heads. So 80s
Andy Warhol opened doors for the Art of the century
He also opened his shitpipe for his lovers peckers
MrGaryo78 And?
And I hope they don't let you out of your cage too often.
Ariele Betterton MrGaryo78
please!
+wolfhh21 The door then slammed in his face when Warhol died...
My idol RIP to this legend
1:21 Slippery People by The Staple Singers playing in the background.
Talking Heads
@@victoriabaker4400 The Staple Singers covered the song, which is the version playing in this video.
"Daily life is sort of documented and put out there" damn imagine if he was around today
0.52...Basquiat painting...What a treat! Thanks for posting this.
Who helped who is almost irrelevant. It's a sidenote at best. Their initial introduction seems the most prominent, but neither of them needed each other- they both would of kept working hard regardless. They both probably gained cred with niche audiences by working together. It's also understood they weren't just colleagues, but very good friends. What matters is the work they produced together was fresh. That's it- unless your a gossipite or Valerie Solonas. And yes, I just made that word up.
The artist Basquiat had something to say with his life .His work is worth million's and worth every penny.
Basquiat has such a calm voice. He is the black Bob Ross, when it comes to the voice.
this guy had natural talent
who are you a descent of a austro hungarian emperor who hasnt appreciated art since the baroque period, you sound really well balanced and open to new ideas
Andy's so smacked out in this clip that JMB has to hold him up. That's the definition of a supporting friend.
5 stars , for this video about 2 artists , real artists.
Just watch the Basquiat movie in class today!
Jean-Michel is freaking awesome he has became one of my biggest inspirations
He's like the Jimi Hendrix of art.
both geniouses, like it or not they changed the world. i fell closer to jean michel's art, but respect both of them.
i made a short video on Basquiat, check it out!
Happy Birthday Andy!!!!! Hope you are enjoying the view up there. :)
That's Tseng Kwong Chi photographing them.
He clearly had talent. His paintings are selling for millions even today. There is a reason for that. Envy is an awful thing better reserved for the weak. If you understand history you would understand. It's in his work.
This narration is exactly the racist language that plagued Jean-Michele. Also, his desire to stand spoke volumes. So much in that exchange.
Lol whats that funky pop art sounding song there playing in backround lolll towards end
Heres the name of the Andy Warhol factory member that is not credited. SUPERDUDE
Superdude is still alive and playing music at nearly 70. He is the person standing right behind Andy in the photo on sonicbids.
It would be nice for him to get some recognition.

I tend to think Jean would have spent more time with Andy, had Andy lived longer.
this art is GREAT! and I hate when people bash stuff and say they can do it!! tossers!! ever thought its about the state of mind of an artist! the idea! do some of you think about the amount images around us everyday! the influences we get? why we pick and choose what we like and dislike!! there is so much information and story's going on in Basquiats work! just to have a quick glance and say its crap without thinking is DUMB!
No Gemma I still have a few of dear Jean's drawings and a little canvas work.
The two painted drums are truy unnique indeed.
email me before the magic day!
Jean-Michel Basquiat and Jhoan Roa are my favorite artists!
Thank you world
Im going to visit Basquait's grave one day in NY.. have a picnic by it. I love him.
this sounds so morbid for some reason 😳
pure genius.
Звучащая
.
Под жёлтыми струнами ровных волос,
в которых прохлада, дождливые брызги,
журчание речи средь капелек рос,
летящих так редко из серой возвыси.
Те нити играют искомую суть.
Почти недвижимо их трогает ветер,
пушинкой - простым медиатором, чуть,
вдруг мне открывая секреты, заветы.
Я слушаю музыку, буквы в тиши,
и в ноты, и в нотки вникаю так верно.
Волшебное соло средь клавиш машин.
Один только я это слышу из смертных.
Мерцание искр, как лаковых крох,
мельчайших иль вовсе придуманных мною.
Наверно, в раю оркеструющий Бог
вовсю дирижирует сходной волною.
Она - тоже ангел, у мраморных сцен.
И нет ей подобных и равных, созвучных.
Я - малый Господь, отрешён и блажен,
что хоть на мгновения с ней неразлучный...
Dee purchased one 'S', and I still have that small Warhol, hand-drawn Campbell's Soup can sketch I purchased directly from Warhol's elder brother, Paul when I visited his farm in PA.
If you want that you may have it for cheap..email me or phone me !
LOL! you're close. It's actually a Talking Heads' track "Slippery People" being covered by an R&B/Soul group The Staple Singers.
Thank you for posting the video!
I can't believe they died just 1 year apart
very bloody good. There's an interview with him about his role in Phoebe Hoban's biography of JMB called A Quick Killing In Art that's really interesting.
That biography isn't very good, I wouldn't rely on it too much.
Such a tragic and shameful loss.very deep and intriguing figure
we're talking different kinds of rarity. technical talent is indeed rare. but so is an original personality who can make art that people can always identify as coming from that particular artist. around the 20th century, originality started taking over as the main criteria of what made an artist valuable. people who support this criteria believe in searching out original brains regardless of whether they are attached to talented hands.
The song is called "Slippery People" by the Talking Heads
Art is an expression a God given ability all people can not capture the essence and soul of a human being in a portrait or take something completely mundane and simple and turn it into something beautiful or illude the mind like M.C Escher all people are not meant to do art that's why every human being has his or her own specific purpose that's why we have musicians, lawyers, doctors, dancers etc etc
wow..thanks so much for posting this...amazing!!!
So peaceful to watch
he is one of my favorite artist
So great, becuz he was the first to make it...
this made me happy
Rest in peace, your art will be inspiracion for long years
