2022 Art You Can Still See: 'Jean-Michel Basquiat: King Pleasure'

All Of It with Alison Stewart | Dec 26, 2022

[REBROADCAST FROM April 13, 2022] Jean-Michel Basquiat: King Pleasure features over 200 objects, most of which have never been shown to the public. Curated by Jean-Michel's sisters, Lisane and Jeanine Basquiat, the show offers a multidimensional portrait of Jean-Michel's life and work. Lisane and Jeanine Basquiat join us to discuss their brother's art, and the show, which is on view now through January 1.
