The exhibition at Hauser & Wirth St Moritz highlights the lesser-known connections of Jean-Michel Basquiat with the Engadin region, expanding our understanding of his work and inspirations.
Curator Dieter Buchhart aims to uncover Basquiat's genuine ties to various cultures, as this exhibition explores his experiences and artistic growth during visits to Switzerland.
Basquiat's artwork, specifically 'The Dutch Settlers,' intertwines themes of historical exploitation, ancient civilizations, and cultural references, showcasing his unique, multifaceted artistic vision.
This exhibition raises awareness about how Basquiat's time in Switzerland influenced his creative process and the evolution of his art during the 1980s.
