English Summary:

Basquiat is a 1996 American biographical drama film directed, co-written and co-composed by Julian Schnabel in his feature directorial debut. The film is based on the life of American postmodernist/neo expressionist artist Jean-Michel Basquiat. Basquiat, born in Brooklyn, used his graffiti roots as a foundation to create collage-style paintings on canvas.

Jeffrey Wright portrays Basquiat, and David Bowie plays Basquiat's friend and mentor Andy Warhol. Additional cast members include Gary Oldman as a thinly disguised Schnabel, Michael Wincott as the poet and art critic Rene Ricard, Dennis Hopper as Bruno Bischofberger, Parker Posey as gallery owner Mary Boone, Christopher Walken as a villainous journalist, Willem Dafoe as an electrician, and Claire Forlani, Courtney Love, Tatum O'Neal, and Benicio del Toro in supporting roles as "composite characters".

Hungarian Summary:

Egy húszéves New York-i falfirkász srác, név szerint Jean-Michel Basquiat a nyolcvanas évek elején hipp-hopp a nagyváros művészvilága érdeklődésének kö- zéppontjába kerül. Az ifjú titánt kézről kézre adogatják, aki azonban nehezen alkalmazkodik a hirtelen jött siker csillogásához, s a kábítószer-túladagolás következtében meghal.
