Sara Driver’s exploration of the pre-fame years of aquired-taste artist Jean-Michel Basquiat offers a window into his life and the City of New York, 1978-81, illustrating how the city, the times and the people around him informed the artist he became and shaped his vision.

“In Ms. Driver, the artist finds a kindred spirit, a fellow investigator who pays him proper and enthralling tribute,” enthused the New York Times.
