God Bless America Neo-Expressionist Painting In The Spirit Of The Basquiat Signed S. Solomon, 1982

Chairish

$5,800

Acquired from a Palm Beach estate, this striking original painting is signed S. Solomon and dated 1982 on the reverse. Measuring an impressive 60” x 70”, the work captures the raw energy, spontaneity, and cultural commentary that defined the Neo-Expressionist movement of the early 1980s. The canvas is alive with vibrant color, handwritten messages, cartoon-like figures, symbolic imagery, and layers of spontaneous mark-making. Phrases woven throughout the composition include “Dream Is the Only Dream,” “Kids Need Love,” “Art For Sale,” “Life Is a Magazine,” “God Is American,” “True Love Is Dead,” “Don’t Be a Shit Head, Dope Kills,” and even a reference to “Reagan,” creating a fascinating snapshot of the social and cultural climate of the era. Reminiscent of the visual language that emerged during the Basquiat period, this painting blends humor, protest, personal expression, and pop culture into a powerful composition that reveals new details with every viewing. Its monumental scale and unmistakable presence make it an exceptional statement piece for a contemporary collection. Keywords: Neo-Expressionist, Basquiat Era, S.
