Took me a while to read this but definitely worth it. I had discovered the Basquiat work when my group were reading MD. I wish I had known all this as well. I enjoyed the tale about the bookshelf. Another fun read. What wonderful rabbit holes you explore. Hope you 2025 is a great year!
Very fun, interesting article. I enjoy your (seemingly) obsessive trips down through the Vaticans of film, video, books, ephemera, and personal communications to capture your elusive prey. Always a treat.
For someone who isn’t a art historian or critic, you sure do an incredible job writing about art. Thank you for this fascinating piece!
Thank you Alexandra!
So glad to read this.

Thank you Ann, you too! I appreciate all the support this year!
