Schiele & Basquiat, Art & Life
In principle they have little in common, yet Egon Schiele (1890–1918, Vienna) and Jean-Michel Basquiat (1960–88, New York) both died at age twenty-eight, after having created, in just a decade, an oeuvre as dense as it is prolific and rebellious. Schiele made nearly 300 paintings and several thousand drawings; Basquiat produced more than 1,000 paintings and as many drawings. Two recent exhibitions at the Fondation Louis Vuitton made these dissenting voices resonate. Suzanne Pagé, the artistic director of the foundation, explores them for L’Officiel Singapore
