Collaboration

Boxers are like painters, both smear their blood on the canvas.

New York, 1984. Fifty-six-year-old Andy Warhol''s star is falling. Jean-Michel Basquiat is the new wonder-kid taking the art world by storm. When Basquiat agrees to collaborate with Warhol on a new exhibition, it soon becomes the talk of the city.

As everyone awaits the ''greatest exhibition in the history of contemporary art'', the two artists embark on a shared journey, both artistic and deeply personal, that re-draws both their worlds.
