About the Work

Jean-Michel Basquiat is widely regarded as one of the most important artists of his generation. Emerging from downtown New York at the turn of the 1980s, he transformed painting at a moment when the medium was being reconsidered across Europe and the United States.

Untitled (Man in Prison Cell with Noose) belongs to a pivotal moment in Basquiat's practice, when the raw language of the street fused with a rapidly deepening engagement with art history, identity, and structures of power.
