When a 22-year-old Jean-Michel Basquiat (1960-88) was asked how he typically began a piece, his answer was simple: "I suppose I would start with a head." That instinct-almost a reflex-sits at the core of a remarkable group of early works on paper that remained largely unseen during his lifetime. The Basquiat: Headstrong exhibition, which opens this month at the Louisiana Museum of Modern Art in Denmark, is set to become the first comprehensive showing devoted to the artist's depictions of the human head.

Our friend just opened a new solo show, KOM INTE OCH KNACKA PÅ (Don't Come and Knock) at Galleri Thomassen in Gothenburg, Sweden. The show consists of many new works on paper "Isolation and fear were recurring thoughts during the work. I often get stuck on a single word or sentence, this should not be mistaken for a theme or an explanation. Rather, the process itself should lead the works in the direction they wish." - Daniel Götesson 2025
