Detailed Description

Crackism is an art style that emerged in the late 1980s in response to the crack cocaine epidemic in the United States. Crackism artists often used bright colors and bold patterns to depict the energy and chaos of the drug trade. Famous Crackism artists include Keith Haring, Jean-Michel Basquiat, and Kenny Scharf. Haring’s Crack is Wack mural, painted in 1986, is one of the most iconic images of the Crackism movement. Basquiat’s Crackhouse paintings, created in 1988, offer a gritty and realistic view of life in crack houses. Scharf’s CrackHeads series, begun in 1989, is a darkly humorous take on the crack epidemic. Today, Crackism is considered an important part of the history of American art.
