Basquiat’s art focused on differences such as wealth versus poverty, integration versus segregation, and inner versus outer experience. He used drawing, painting poetry, and married text and imagery which made for very strong compositions. Basquiat used social commentary in his paintings as a tool for introspection and for identifying with his experiences in the black community. His work also attacked power structures and systems of racism. He passed away on August 12, 1988 due to a heroin overdose. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
