c.2017

About the Item

Jean-Michel Basquiat "Horn Players" skateboard deck set: Basquiat Skateboard Deck Triptych licensed by the Estate of Jean Michel Basquiat in conjunction with Artestar c. 2017, featuring offset imagery of the much iconic early eighties work, Basquiat "Horn Players". Each deck measures: 31.5″ h x 8″ w (x 3 decks) Medium: Screen Print on 7-ply Canadian Maple Wood. New in its original packaging; excellent condition. Features signature stamp and Basquiat crown on reverse side. Trademark licensed by the estate of Jean-Michel Basquiat in conjunction with artestar. Published by skateroom from an edition of unknown. This unique Skate Deck Triptych is derived from Basquiat's famed 1983 Horn players - an homage to Basquiat hero's Charlie Parker and Dizzy Gillespie. "On the left is Parker with his alto saxophone and on the right is Gillespie with his trumpet. Both players are considered among the best jazz musicians ever, and their influential style of bebop resonates loudly throughout the history of modern jazz. Parker’s legendary jazz standard “Ornithology,” recorded in 1946, is referenced in the middle section of the painting. Jean-Michel Basquiat was an avid jazz listener and musician in his own right, and this work shows the relationship between his improvisational style of painting and the alchemy of jazz composition. In both art forms, there is an underlying structure or rhythm, while the melody — or in this case, Basquiat’s frenetic brushstrokes — floats and skitters around on top." (source: The Broad)

Raymond Pettibon Santa Monica 1999 (announcement)
By Raymond Pettibon
Located in NEW YORK, NY
Raymond Pettibon Santa Monica, CA 1999: Rare vintage Raymond Pettibon illustrated announcement card published on the occasion of: “Works By: Pettibon, Kelly, Goldin, Holzer:” November 3 thru December 1 1999: IKON, LTD./Kay Richards Contemporary Art: Santa Monica, California. Medium: offset printed announcement card. 1999. Approx Dimensions: 4 x 5.25 inches Very good overall vintage condition; unsigned from an edition of unknown. Raymond Pettibon is a contemporary American artist known for his stylized ink drawings combining images and text. His inventive narratives blend historical content with consumer culture to yield incisive critiques of contemporary society. “I was making my work as transparent as possible, without equivocations, without calling attention to itself, without apology,” he explained. “There's a lot of conventions in the art world that are not to be transgressed, but my economy of means doesn't abide by those strictures.” Born Raymond Ginn on June 16, 1957 in Tucson, AZ, the artist is self-taught, but cites drawings by William Blake, Edward Hopper, Francisco Goya, and John Sloan as instructive to his practice. Deriving inspiration from comics, cartoons, and other pop culture iconography, Pettibon began designing album covers and ephemera for his brother’s band Black Flag in the mid-1970s. He went on to produce cover art for Sonic Youth, the Minutemen, and the Foo Fighters. In 2017, the artist was the subject of the major retrospective “Raymond Pettibon: A Pen of All Work,” held at the New Museum in New York, where he currently lives and works. Today, his works can be found in the collections of the Centre Georges Pompidou in Paris, The Museum of Modern Art in New York, and the Tate Gallery in London, among others.
