Basquiat: The Unknown Notebooks at the BROOKLYN MUSEUM

James Kalm, despite some stinging comments published in a critique of the exhibition "Crossing Brooklyn," and the initial disappearance of his name from the guest list, is inadvertently admitted to the Museum's Brooklyn Artists Ball. While celebrity artists schmoozed with deep-pocket donors in the main foyer, your correspondent slinked upstairs to an empty gallery, and records video of "Basquiat: The Unknown Notebooks". Jean-Michel Basquiat uniquely captured the spirit of his time in the 1980s East Village. Featuring 160 pages of rarely seen documents, and related works on paper and large-scale paintings, this display presents the artists poetic side, while also exposing his deep interest in language games, lists, ontological design and daily ephemera.
