Screen-print on Saunders Waterford paper. From 'Superhero' suite. Signed by Lisane Basquiat and Jeanine Heriveaux, the sisters and Administrators of the Estate of Jean-Michel Basquiat on verso, including stamps of the Estate and Publisher. Riddle Me This, Batman (1982–87/2022) is a vibrant screenprint based on an original artwork by Jean-Michel Basquiat, reproduced posthumously as part of the Superhero suite. In this chaotic and layered composition, characters like the Riddler and the Joker appear alongside graffiti-like text, laughter motifs ("HA HA HA"), and symbolic imagery. Rendered in Basquiat’s raw, energetic style, the work critiques comic book tropes, violence, and absurdity, while incorporating recurring themes of chaos, identity, and cultural critique. Printed on Saunders Waterford paper in a limited edition of 85, the print is signed on the verso by Lisane Basquiat and Jeanine Heriveaux with estate and publisher stamps.
