Meaning & Analysis

In The Figure IV, Basquiat employs his signature style characterised by energetic lines, vivid colours, and a collage of symbols and text. The figure at the centre, rendered with expressive strokes, is emblematic of Basquiat's exploration of identity and power. His technique of layering text and imagery creates a complex narrative that invites multiple interpretations. This screenprint is part of a portfolio that reflects his fascination with anatomy and human figures, echoing his earlier works like the Anatomy series. The piece is stamped by Basquiat's estate, ensuring its authenticity and connection to the artist's legacy. Created in collaboration with his sisters, Lisane Basquiat and Jeanine Heriveaux, this artwork continues to captivate collectors and enthusiasts, reinforcing Basquiat's position as a pivotal figure in the art world.
