The exhibition at the Fondation Louis Vuitton beautifully captures the synergy between Basquiat’s expressive style and Warhol’s pop sensibility. Their collaborative works reveal a fusion of their distinct approaches, creating a new visual language that challenges conventional art boundaries. Despite—or perhaps because of—their groundbreaking work, the relationship between Basquiat and Warhol was viewed through various lenses. Some critics saw it as mutually exploitative; Warhol needed Basquiat’s fresh perspective to rejuvenate his career, while Basquiat sought Warhol’s fame to cement his status in the art world.
