SELECTED WEBSITES

MAIN BASQUIAT SITES:

Basquiat.com. Owned and operated by the Estate of Jean-Michel Basquiat. http://Basquiat.Com (A new site featuring M. Franklin Sirmans’ classic chronology of the artist with illustrated works, a republished essay from Fred Hoffman, an FAQ, a very limited list of events and news related to the Estate, and a store containing “Basquiat Couture” supporting the Estate.)

Brooklyn Museum. From Street to Studio: The Art of Jean-Michel Basquiat. Developed: Brooklyn Museum & Educational Web Adventures.  www.brooklynmuseum.org/exhibitions/basquiat/street-to-studio/
(Interactive website for young people. Viewers can find many images, and questions about the artist.)

Brooklyn Museum. Jean-Michel Basquiat. www.brooklynmuseum.org/exhibitions/basquiat/
(Website of the 1992 retrospective exhibition. Reliable text on Basquiat’s artistic development.)

Basquiat Biography. www.BasquiatBiography.com
(This website -- supporting the book Jean-Michel Basquiat: A Biography with useful features like a time line of the artist's life, list of Basquiat exhibitions, bibliography, and links to reproductions of all the works discussed in the book -- but the site does not contain text from the book. Unusual is the updated blog relating to the artist, and updated listing of when the artist's work can be seen in exhibition or auction previews.)
