Fondation Louis Vuitton presents ‘Basquiat x Warhol. Painting 4 Hands’, exploring the collaboration between the two artists
The subsequent collaborations were subject to a relaxed choreography, with the artists creating together and responding to each other’s pieces in a way of working Keith Haring later termed a ‘conversation’. With one artist taking over from the other during sessions, the influence of both is naturally felt in these works, from Basquiat’s use of silkscreen in his polyphonic art to Warhol’s re-embracing of brushwork.
‘Basquiat x Warhol. Painting 4 Hands’ traces this journey, beginning with the original portrait that marked the start of their collaboration,Olympic Rings , painted by hand by Warhol and featuring Basquiat’s interventions, such as his blackening of some of the rings and making a black face visible, a theme seen throughout. Work considers the integration of the African-American community into the north American culture narrative, contemplated again in, thought to be a reworking of the 1984-85 New York Museum of Modern Art exhibition, ‘“Primitivism” in 20th Century Art: Affinity of the Tribal and the Modern’., 1984.
