Chicago Native and fellow alum of Clark Atlanta University, Hebru Brantley has a new solo exhibit entitled "Eat Crap King" showing at Vertical Gallery. The exhibit depicts word famous artists Andy Warhol and Jean-Michel Basquiat wearing boxing gloves. On one side you have Warhol who is viewed as the more traditional artist, and on the other side is Basquiat was considered to be more of a rebel. The images tell the story of two friends navigating their way through life rather than two artists fighting for fame or popularity, though Basquiat takes Warhol down in a painting titled "Shook up the World."
