Photographer Nicholas Taylor had the unique opportunity to meet a young Jean-Michel Basquiat long before his career as an artist took off.
Taylor met and photographed Basquiat and his band "Gray" in the late 1970s before joining the band himself. This intense portrait of the artist is part of a portfolio of images Taylor captured in those early days, and is signed, titled, and numbered in pencil by Taylor at the bottom.
