JEAN-MICHEL BASQUIAT

Jean-Michel Basquiat, an iconic force of the 1980s New York art scene, brought the raw grit of the streets to the polished walls of galleries with his neo-expressionist works. His art, characterized by a tempest of scribbled words, potent symbols, and mask-like faces, crafted a visual language that was unmistakably his own.

In line with Yellowpop’s ethos of making inspiring art accessible, we’ve partnered with the Basquiat estate to bring a slice of his genius into everyday spaces. Our Basquiat Collection draws from his powerful lexicon of imagery, inviting the spirited energy and rebellious intellect of his work into your home, in radiant LED form.

"These Yellowpop neons are so fun!,” says Jeanine Heriveaux of the Estate of Jean-Michel Basquiat. “Seeing Jean-Michel’s artwork and icons translated into light is a powerful way to celebrate his legacy that anyone can enjoy.”
