Jean-Michel Basquiat, Artista Absoluto (2022)
Esta película es ante todo un viaje. De Brooklyn a Abidjan, pasando por Mississippi, Puerto Rico y Haití. Un viaje sobre la búsqueda de la identidad del artista afroamericano contemporáneo más famoso y uno de los pintores más relevantes del siglo XX, Jean-Michel Basquiat. Sin embargo deviene un viaje paradójico, pues a pesar de sus raíces haitianas y puertorriqueñas, Basquiat apenas exploró el continente africano. Sin embargo, nunca dejó de soñar con ello, trascendiendo su “memoria cultural” para producir obras icónicas. Se dice demasiado poco: aunque el pintor se anticipó como ningún otro a la globalización del arte, sobre todo se enfrentó a una América plagada de racismo.
Directora: Pierre-Paul Puljiz
