A Rare, Intimate Portrait — Signed by Lee Jaffe. Discover the untold story of a legendary friendship in Jean-Michel Basquiat: Crossroads, a powerful and immersive volume that captures the raw energy, curiosity, and brilliance of Basquiat at a pivotal moment in his life. Signed by photographer and artist Lee Jaffe, this book offers a uniquely personal window into the world of a rising icon.
In 1983, Jaffe and Basquiat traveled together through Japan, Thailand, and Switzerland—an unforgettable journey documented through Jaffe’s candid, unfiltered photographs. These rare images reveal Basquiat beyond the canvas: laughing on a bullet train in Kyoto, painting with focus and fire in St. Moritz, and moving through the world with the magnetic presence that shaped his groundbreaking career. Jaffe’s intimate photographs are paired with firsthand reflections, stories, and memories that paint a vivid portrait of their friendship—fueled by creativity, collaboration, and a shared love of reggae and cultural icons like Bob Marley. Their connection transcended art, becoming a meeting point of ideas, rhythms, and restless imagination.
Jean-Michel Basquiat: Crossroads is more than a photography book—it is a tribute, a time capsule, and a rare glimpse into the human side of an artistic legend. With each copy signed by Lee Jaffe, this volume becomes an even more exceptional keepsake for collectors, art lovers, and anyone inspired by Basquiat’s enduring legacy.
