Tote Bag Basquiat Headstrong Mosquito Coil

Tote bag with the work Mosquito Coil , 1982 by the American artist Jean-Michel Basquiat (1960-1988). The bag is released in connection with the exhibition 'Basquiat – Headstrong' and produced by Rome Pays Off.

The exhibition 'Basquiat - Headstrong' is set to be the first comprehensive showing devoted to the artist's depictions of the human head, including many works that the artist chose to keep to himself during his lifetime.

Occupying a position as an icon, myth and outright brand, Basquiat long ago burst out of the narrow confines of art history to become a ubiquitous global phenomenon: a young Black artist who broke through in a blitz of heads, bodies and potent symbols, only to vanish again at the age of 27. Since then, the mythology surrounding his life and work has only grown stronger; today it lives a life of its own in popular culture.
