Michael Joseph Jackson (born August 29, 1958 in Gary, Indiana - † June 25, 2009 in Los Angeles, California) was an American pop, soul, R&B, funk, disco and rock singer and dancer , Songwriter, author, music and film producer and music manager. According to the Guinness Book of Records, he is the most successful entertainer of all time and at the same time the artist who financially and representatively supported most charities worldwide. He has received several awards for his commitment. Because of his success in music, he is known as the "King of Pop". Nevertheless, Michael Jackson is one of the most colorful, mysterious and perhaps also the most spooky and dubious personalities in pop business. With this portrait, which appears almost fragmentary and very reduced, the artist has taken this aspect into account. The face area shimmers and sparkles in metallic pigments and numerous sequins.
