Attention New Yorkers: a fine art exhibit I'd attend if I lived closer.

If I wasn't headed that way next weekend, this is where I'd be headed this weekend: Jean-Michel Basquiat Exhibit at the Brooklyn Musuem. The exhibition ends June 5th, unfortunately, because I was going to try to squeeze it into my MoCCA trip. Now some might be hesitant to call some of his work art, what with the graffiti influence and all, but I think his work was stellar.



For a quick, easy-to-digest primer on Basquiat, check out Basquiat Online, which the Brooklyn Museum website described as designed for teenagers, but it also works as an overview for those not familiar with the artist.
