Basquiat: Rage to Riches

United Kingdom · 2017

Director David Shulman
Starring Jean-Michel Basquiat, Andy Warhol, Lisane Basquiat, Jeanine Basquiat
Genre Documentary

This film tells Jean-Michel's story through exclusive interviews with his two sisters Lisane and Jeanine, who have never before agreed to be interviewed for a TV documentary. With striking candour, Basquiat's art dealers - including Larry Gagosian, Mary Boone and Bruno Bischofberger - as well as his most intimate friends, lovers and fellow artists, expose the cash, the drugs and the pernicious racism which Basquiat confronted on a daily basis. As historical tableaux, visual diaries of defiance or surfaces covered with hidden meanings, Basquiat's art remains the beating heart of this story.

We hate to say it, but we can't find anywhere to view this film.
