The artwork titled “Boxer” by Jean-Michel Basquiat, created in 1982, employs acrylic and crayon as its primary mediums. It is a part of the Neo-Expressionism and Street Art movements, encapsulating a figurative genre with dimensions of 193 by 239 centimeters.
“Boxer” exhibits a raw and dynamic figure of a boxer, rendered in bold, expressive strokes and vibrant colors. The figure’s raised arms and intense expression convey a sense of power and triumph. The background is energetically filled with abstract lines and shapes, adding to the chaotic and spontaneous feel characteristic of Basquiat’s work. The distinct use of lines and repetition of certain motifs emphasizes the artist’s unique style and emotive representation.
