Basquiat X Warhol: Paintings 4 Hands
In the spring of 2023, Fondation Louis Vuitton will be holding Basquiat x Warhol... Painting 4 hands, the most important exhibition ever devoted to the collaborative work of these two artists. The exhibition will feature more than 100 jointly signed paintings, in addition to individual works by Basquiat and Warhol, and works by other major artists (Keith Haring, Jenny Holzer, Kenny Scharf, etc.) in order to recreate the New York downtown art scene of the 1980s.
From 1984 to 1985, Jean-Michel Basquiat (1960-1988) and Andy Warhol (1928-1987) jointly produced about 160 paintings, some of the largest in their respective careers. A genuine artistic dialogue of style and form had developed between them that dealt equally well with crucial issues such as the integration of the African-American community into the narrative of North America, a continent where Warhol was a major manufacturer of icons.

Praise for this book
A history-making exhibition...-- "Bazaar"
....the most important exhibition ever dedicated to this extraordinary body of work.-- "FAD Magazine"
Chronicles one of the greatest artist collaborations in history.-- "Hypebeast"
The energy and force of the incredible chemistry between the two artists is the driving force of this unique exhibition...-- "Bonjour Paris"
...the most comprehensive account yet shown of a rollercoaster friendship, begun in the highest spirits....This is a fascinating show: for its exploration of how collaboration works, or doesn't; for the convergence of Pop art's flat neutrality with Basquiat's gestural and emotive extravaganzas; and above all for its sociopolitical resonance today...it is absolutely compelling to watch the drama of a young black artist effectively over-painting the work of a white cultural icon.-- "The Financial Times"
...you can quite literally feel the energy the two radiated while collaborating in the studio.-- "Artnews"
