"There was
this little prince with a magic crown. An evil warlock
kidnapped him, locked him in a cell in a huge tower and took
away his voice. There was a window made of bars. The prince
would smash his head against the bars hoping that someone
would hear the sound and find him. The crown made the most
beautiful sound that anyone ever heard. You could hear the
ringing for miles. It was so beautiful, that people wanted to
grab the air. They never found the prince. He never got out of
the room. But the sound he made filled everything up with
beauty."
- Julian Schnabel from the movie Basquiat
"I had some money, I
made the best paintings ever. I was completely reclusive,
worked a lot, took a lot of drugs. I was awful to
people."
- Jean-Michel Basquiat in The New York Times |
