Jean-Michel Basquiat | The Italian Version of Popeye has no Pork in his Diet | Christie's

The Italian Version of Popeye has no Pork in his Diet’ is replete with the potent iconography that established Jean-Michel Basquiat as a constant figure in the New York art market.
Painted in 1982, this explosive highlight of our 21st Century Evening Sale exemplifies Basquiat’s total upheaval of centuries of painterly tradition. Here, Alex Rotter, Chairman of 20th and 21st Century Art walks us through some of the history of the artist’s best stretcher bar painting.
This work and more are on view in our Rockefeller Center galleries through 14 May.
