Description
This framed lithograph, Offensive Orange, by Jean-Michel Basquiat, created in 1984, is a striking example of the artist's ability to merge raw energy with complex themes. Rendered in a dominant orange hue, the composition features two stylized, skeletal figures positioned against an intense, chaotic backdrop of abstract forms, cryptic symbols, and bold strokes that encapsulate Basquiat's unique neo-expressionist style. Each figure is outlined in blue and white, with details that resemble anatomical diagrams, bringing a sense of vulnerability and defiance.
The figures are both dynamic and confrontational, their postures suggesting a blend of tension and resilience. The background, filled with frenzied linework and spontaneous marks, adds layers of emotion and urgency, reminiscent of graffiti—a key influence in Basquiat’s work. The chaotic texture and graffiti-like writing infuse the piece with an urban energy and a sense of rebellion, reflecting the artist’s engagement with social issues and his commentary on race, identity, and power.
Encased in a silver-toned frame that contrasts elegantly with the bold colors of the lithograph, this artwork commands attention, drawing viewers into Basquiat’s world, where themes of struggle and resilience are deeply embedded in each layer. This lithograph comes with a certificate of authenticity.
