InfoGrenades / Fun Fact: Basquiat's favorite book was 'Dreyfuss's Symbol Sourcebook'. His entire body of work was influenced by this book.

So if Basquiat’s entire body of work was influenced by this book maybe it’s worth a look. Hey, wait a minute, what’s that weird symbol on the cover?

Isnt that the Rosicrucian “squared circle” that Carl Jung wrote about in “Man and his Symbols”? Odd.

SOURCE: See the Basquiat mini-documentary for yourself here on Youtube
