About the Item

Title: Montreux Jazz Festival 1983 by Keith Haring 1986 Medium: Screenprint in colours on half-matte coated 250 gr paper Printer: Albin Uldry Size: 70 x 100 cm (27.6 x 39.4 in) Signature: Plate signed by Keith Haring Open edition Description: In 1986, Keith Haring, already celebrated for his groundbreaking art, was invited to create the poster for the Montreux Jazz Festival. This collaboration stemmed from Pierre Keller's encounter with Haring shortly after the artist's highly successful first official exhibition in 1982. Inspired by Keller's vision of a poster featuring a swinging character, Haring presented three variations, all of which were retained for their captivating energy and dynamic style. The innovative idea to invite the renowned New York artist to Montreux was a stroke of genius by Keller and Claude Nobs. Haring's presence at the festival was electric as he tirelessly painted frescoes on large white panels, graced the stage alongside musicians, and adorned the streets of Montreux with his vibrant artwork. This poster encapsulates the spirit of creativity and collaboration that defined Haring's legendary career and remains a cherished piece of music and art history.

  • La femme fatale (à moi)
    By Erró
    Located in Malmo, SE
    Publisher GKM. Edition of 200 ex. Unframed. Signed, dated and numbered. Free shipment worldwide. “I paint because painting is a private Utopia,” Erró writes of his art. The landscapes in Erró’s work are a constantly changing kaleidoscope of images, multivalent and mysterious, not infrequently controversial, bursting with life – and titillating, too! There is room in his pictures for both paradise and visions of fear. Erró is the alias of Gudmundur Gudmundsson, born on 19 July 1932 in Olafsvik, in north-western Iceland. Since Gudmundur first became enthralled by pictures of works of art in a catalogue from the Museum of Modern Art in New York at the tender age of ten, painting has been his passion and his mission in life. He was accepted into art school in Reykjavik as a 19-year old, subsequently complementing what he had learned there with further studies in Oslo. Erró travelled extensively in Spain, Italy, France and Germany in the 1950s, studying at the Florence Academy of Art in 1954 and at the School of Byzantine Mosaic Art in Ravenna in 1955. It was around this time that he began to exhibit his works, first and foremost in Paris, where he chose to make his home in 1958. During the 1960s he established contact with the Swedish museum director Pontus Hultén, who encouraged him and took him under his wing. Over the years Erró has taken part in hundreds of exhibitions and today his works are on show in museums all over the world, including the Centre Pompidou in Paris. Erró’s pictorial world is peopled by comic-strip characters and autocratic despots alike. Donald Duck with his Daisy, Chip & Dale, and other Walt Disney creations are unselfconsciously juxtaposed with Greek gods and madonnas. Elsewhere the German dictator Adolf Hitler stands shoulder to shoulder with his Iraqi counterpart Saddam Hussein...
