In the late ’70s, Jean-Michel Basquiat was known in the New York underground scene for the graffiti he created under the pseudonym ofSAMO©. But shortly after his participation in a group show in 1980, everything changed. René Ricard published an article about him entitled The Radiant Child in Artforum and he then quickly rose to international stardom. Sadly, he just as quickly lost his life.
