I recently read the book BASQUIAT, by Phoebe Hoban. "His trademark erasures were his most heartfelt artistic gesture." His concept was that society repeats itself, that everything is the same old thing. Basquiat's work appeared at the same time as Jenny Holzer's. They both played with words, influenced by Derrida's principle of "sous rature", under erasure, deconstruction. Hace poco lei el libro BASQUIAT, de Phoebe Hoban. "Su marca tipica de borrones y tachaduras eran su gesto artistico mas intimo." Su concepto fue que la sociedad se repite a si misma, que todo es siempre lo mismo. El trabajo de Basquiat aparecio al mismo tiempo que el de Jenny Holzer. Ambos jugaban con palabras, influenciados por el principio de Derrida, de tachar y escribir por encima, deconstruccion.
