Jean-Michel Basquiat: The Radiant Child

For all our art appreciators, Tamra Davis a close friend of Basquiat, made a documentary paying homage to the celebrated painter. The Radiant Child gives a fascinating insider look at the artist and the man. With never-before-seen footages of Basquiat filmed in two years before his death, in his own words we  get a chance to understand the inner-workings of this successful, glorified young black artist who faced many challenges in his time.

Also an interesting tidbit, Jean-Michel Basquiat is of Haitian descent, his father Gerard Basquiat was born in Port-au-Prince....We knew he had to be one of us ;-)

Be sure to check out The Radiant Child to discover more about this iconoclast who ran in a tight circle with Mr. Warhol.
