Description: Bielefeld: Kerber, 2012. 28cm., hardcover, 256pp., 207 color, 51 b&w illus. Summary : Andy Warhol always made himself available and accessible to younger emerging artists, and in the vibrant New York art scene of the 1980s, Jean-Michel Basquiat and Francesco Clemente forged particularly close friendships with Warhol--even becoming something of a triumvirate, as this new publication on the three artists shows. Between 1983 and 1985, Basquiat, Clemente and Warhol produced a number of collaborative paintings whose compositional vitality lay in their fusion of contrary energies, and the three constantly borrowed and adapted motifs from each other, also making portraits of one another. Ménage à Trois: Warhol, Basquiat, Clemente offers a comprehensive overview of this generative friendship, which is contextualized through full-color reproductions, documentary photographs, essays and an interview with Bruno Bischofberger, the collector who initiated Warhol and Basquiat’s collaborations.
