BASQUIAT (FILM SCREENING)

In 1981, Jean-Michel Basquiat was a 19-year-old graffiti artist living on the streets. Eight years later, he was a world-renowned painter -- and the tragic victim of his own addiction. This 1996 film directed by Julian Schnabel chronicles Basquiat's meteoric rise in New York's art world, his anguish over his family, and his hatred of a society that both courted and exploited him. Starring, in alphabetical order: Benicio Del Toro, Claire Forlani, David Bowie, Dennis Hopper, Jeffrey Wright, Michael Wincott, Parker Posey.
