Yes, it is possible to own a Jean-Michel Basquiat (1960-1988) artwork without spending millions. Last Rights/AM Nightime 1981 is coming to the second day of Clars Auction Gallery's September 7-8 sale in Oakland, California with a $200,000 high estimate.
Bought from the artist in 1981 or 1982, this will be the third time the acrylic, spray paint and oil paint stick on canvas has changed hands since then.
