Basketball
In the spirited strokes of “Basketball,” created in 1994, the late Purvis Young captures the dynamism and raw energy of urban life. This mixed media masterpiece, measuring 30 x 24 inches, is a testament to Young’s intuitive command of form and his profound understanding of the human condition. His work, often a social commentary, pulsates with the rhythm of the streets, and in this piece, the fluidity of movement synonymous with the game of basketball is immortalized on the wood panel.
New River Fine Art is thrilled to present this quintessential work from an artist whose oeuvre is marked by a fierce urgency and a passionate, unfiltered view of society. Young’s legacy as a self-taught artist echo in the vibrant language of his art, inviting viewers to delve into a narrative that is at once personal and universal.
This work is not merely an acquisition; it is an inheritance of cultural dialogue and artistic bravery. “Basketball” is available for those who seek to own a slice of Purvis Young’s visionary world — a world that continues to resonate and inspire.
Witness this compelling dialogue of art and life converge on canvas at New River Fine Art.
