During the late 1970s and early 1980s, New York City was
financially and socially bankrupt, but the art and music scene was
flourishing. During these years, the downtown New York music scene
– no wave, hip-hop, disco funk and club culture – shaped
Jean-Michel Basquiat as both a musician and an artist. This
catalogue for a travelling exhibition explores how Basquiat’s
painting has parallels in his music (sampling, cut-up, rapping),
and takes a new look at his production as a writer and a poet in
light of his connections with the then-emerging hip-hop culture.
This beautifully illustrated exhibition catalogue of rarely seen
photographs and images sheds new light on Basquiat as a musician,
exploring how his art and music are related, and how they reflect
on his identity as a Black artist in the United States, the
downtown New York music scene, and contemporary culture.

A magnificently illustrated showcase of works by artists in Paris
at the dawn of the 20th century In Paris at the turn of the 20th
century, an artistic revolution was underway. The Salon des
Independants was organized in 1884 by a group of artists and
thinkers that included Albert Dubois-Pillet, Odilon Redon, Georges
Seurat, and Paul Signac, who was the organization's president from
1908 to his death in 1935. They chose as their slogan "neither jury
nor reward" (ni jury ni recompenses), and for the following three
decades their annual exhibitions set new trends that profoundly
changed the course of Western art. This beautifully illustrated
volume features paintings and graphic works by an impressive range
of artists who exhibited at these avant-garde gatherings where
Impressionists (Monet and Morisot), Fauves (Dury, Friesz, and
Marquet), Symbolists (Gauguin, Mucha, and Redon), Nabis (Bonnard,
Denis, and Lacombe), and Neo-Impressionists (Cross, Pissarro, and
Seurat) all came together. Distributed for Editions Hazan, Paris
Exhibition Schedule: Montreal Museum of Fine Arts (July 4-November
15, 2020)
