Untitled is a 1981 painting created by American artist Jean-Michel Basquiat in 1981. An X-ray-like vision of the head's exposed upper and lower jaw accounts for its misinterpretation as a skull. The painting was acquired by Eli and Edythe Broad in 1982, and is now housed at The Broad museum in Los Angeles. [1]
The two central animals—one vicious and feral, the other decomposed and almost skeletal—represent death and mortality. Through masterful manipulation of line, color, and symbol, Basquiat explores life, death, the spiritual, the supernatural, and the physical in a concrete, visual space.

Untitled adroitly combines elements of abstraction, figuration, and expressionism. It pulses with energy, exuberance, and dynamism, evoking the crowded, cacophonous streets of New York City. Typically, the work is dense with symbolism and coded iconography.
