 Heads and skulls are seen as significant focal points of many of Basquiat's most seminal works.Two pieces, "Untitled (Scull/Skull, 1981)" and "Untitled (Head, 1982)", held by the Broad Foundation and Maezawa Foundation, respectively, can be seen as primary examples.In reference to the potent image depicted in both pieces, Fred Hoffman writes that Basquiat was likely, "caught off guard, possibly even frightened, by the power and energy emanating from this unexpected image."
