Jean-Michel Basquiat was a prominent American artist known for his raw, expressive style that combined elements of street art, neo-expressionism, and African American culture. Emerging in the late 1970s and gaining fame in the 1980s, Basquiat's work often featured bold colors, text, and social commentary on race, identity, and class. His unique approach and ability to blend graffiti with fine art made him a cultural icon, and he continues to influence contemporary artists today.
