Basquiat × Banksy
About
FreeFeaturing two major contemporary paintings, this landmark presentation pairs Jean-Michel Basquiat’s Boy and Dog in a Johnnypump (1982) with Banksy’s response, Banksquiat. Boy and Dog in Stop and Search (2018). Placed in dialogue, the two monumental works reveal connections among street art, contemporary art, and popular imagination.
Basquiat × Banksy marks the first time Banksy’s work has been exhibited at the NCMA and only the second time artwork by Basquiat has traveled to the Museum since the 2011 exhibition 30 Americans. The exhibition originated at the Smithsonian’s Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden in Washington, DC. It was organized by Hirshhorn Associate Curator Betsy Johnson.
