Consider items #1-3 as the Jean Michael Basquiat & Stew & the Negro Problem video-triptych

"Think of the primitive art, in Paris's Musée de l'Homme -- where Worringer had his epiphany -- that also influenced Picasso,
inspiring him to reconsider the art of other cultures, and to create Cubism; and then, of Cubism's influence on countless other artists,
which led to abstraction. Think of the influence of Rembrandt's expressive paint-handling on the Expressionism of Chaim Soutine;
and both Picasso's and Soutine's pictures on de Kooning's expressionistic in the 1950's;
and of de Kooning and African tribal art on the expressionistic and graffiti-laden paintings of Jean-Michael Basquiat in the 1980's;
and of Basquiat on contemporary graffiti art. All of it bringing us full circle."
