JEAN-MICHEL BASQUIAT: THE RADIANT CHILD
September 2nd, 2010
JEAN-MICHEL BASQUIAT: THE RADIANT CHILD- 2009. Premise by Netflix. “Controversial, charismatic artist Jean-Michel Basquiat is the subject of this insightful documentary from director Tamra Davis, who has uncovered a never-before-seen interview with the artist conducted before his untimely death at the age of 27. Also featured are numerous interviews with people who knew and loved Basquiat, a survey of his thought-provoking artworks, little-seen archival materials and footage of the artist at work in his studio.” Very good reviews.
11/10- Well done documentary but I just couldn’t get into the character or his art. The movie seemed to be a hype for Basquiat just as his friends hyped him when he was still alive. TRDB. Netflix.
