Sell Grit 1983

"Sell Grit" is a 1983 painting by American artist Jean-Michel Basquiat, known for his distinctive Neo-Expressionist style. The work features a range of imagery, including a black paint splatter, a patterned grid of footprints, and a collage of text and figures, including a portrait of a man with a hat. The use of bold colors and graphic lines, characteristic of Basquiat's work, creates a powerful visual impact. Basquiat's paintings often explore themes of race, identity, and social commentary, reflecting his experiences in the urban environment.
