Rated BASQUIAT, A QUICK KILLING IN ART, BY PHOEBE HOBAN 6/10

While I enjoyed some of the art gossip and New York history, this book too often describes Basquiat as an exotic, wild 'other.' Some quotes about him are straight up racist, and the book does little to analyze that. <br><br>Overall, just ok.
