Radiant child :
Steptoe, Javaka, 1971-
Radiant child : the story of young artist Jean-Michel Basquiat / - First edition. - 1 volume (unpaged) : color illustrations ; 28 cm
Includes bibliographical references (t.p. verso).
Jean-Michel Basquiat and his unique, collage-style paintings rocked to fame in the 1980s as a cultural phenomenon unlike anything the art work had ever seen. But before that, he was a little boy who saw art everywhere: in poetry books and museums, in games and in the words that we speak, and in the pulsing energy of New York City. Now, award-winning illustrator Javaka Steptoe's vivid text and bold artwork echoing Basquiat's own introduce young readers to the powerful message and art doesn't always have to be neat or clean--and definitely not inside the lines--to be beautiful.
