Basquiat Private Moments

Taken during the height of his fame in 1985 at his studio at Great Jones Street, New York, this series of portraits by acclaimed German photographer Andreas Sterzing are striking in their vulnerability and honesty. No Armani suits, no posturing. In their stark portrayal of a “creative genius,” they instead reveal the man, or rather, “the twenty-something-year-old,” behind it all. Quiet, pensive, and painting. At peace in his studio. Lost in a private moment. This extremely rare collection of 7 NFTs have been fully digitized at 77 editions each, and are made available with much thanks to the photographer. There will be no reruns.
