Thought you'd seen just about everything by Jean-Michel Basquiat? Think again. The American artist will soon be the subject of a new exhibition in New York, which will feature over 200 rarely seen works.

Many museums around the world have dedicated exhibitions to Basquiat since his death at the age of 27 in 1988. But Jean-Michel Basquiat: King Pleasure, conceived by the artist's sisters Lisane Basquiat and Jeanine Heriveaux, is different from all the others. The show is set to be held in New York next year.
