<p>in the new documentary about Jean-Michel Basquiat showing at filmforum NYC, the artist was seen wearing Wes football jersey during some bigshot interview.
It was bit beaten up side, is it legit? thrift-shop find?
The interview must have been taken place 1982-85-sh.
Jeffery Deitch of today is in the film as talking head here there, but back then he was not yet THE man, since Warhol was still alive. thou could he have somehow given Basquiat idea of wearing Wesleyan jersey?
Wes back in 80s…anyone?
I must admit, he looked super cute in that white and red letters.
the film runs only till Aug 3rd, if you are in the area and interested.</p>
