Jean-Michel Basquiat was a key artist in the post-graffiti movement of the 1980s featured in “Writing the Future: Basquiat and the Hip-Hop Generation.” This exhibition tells how street art moved from city walls and subway trains to canvases and into the art world. Stop by the MFA's Juneteenth Community Celebration to create your own wearable headpiece or crown in honor of Basquiat, using wire, beads, and other embellishments.
