By 1983 through the intercession of Page Powell (Basquiat's lover and Warhol's friend) and Bruno Bischofberger (Warhol's Swiss dealer) the two artists developed a friendship. During this time, Basquiat makes frequent appearances in Warhol's diaries: traveling, exercising, and attending parties together. Eventually, the two began work on the paintings that would constitute the bulk of the 1985 Tony Shafrazi show and this subsequent exhibition.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"\"\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"\"\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"\"\u003e\u003cbr style=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Schubertiade Music and Arts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46093846675615,"sku":"23451","price":7000.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0512\/4826\/7423\/files\/Basquiat_2C_Jean-Michel_Warhol_2C_Andy_Collaborations_signed_by_both_23451a.jpg?v=1722190781","url":"https:\/\/www.schubertiademusic.com\/products\/23451-basquiat-jean-michel-warhol-andy-collaborations-1986-catalogue-signed-by-both","provider":"Schubertiade Music and Arts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
