About the Item

1983 Keith Haring Dancing Figures drawing on Keith Haring World Tour hat: A rare, historic Keith Haring collectible featuring a sharply executed black marker drawing of Haring’s signature dancing figures combined with a bold, crisp Haring signature dated 1983 by the artist. This timeless Keith Haring artifact was produced in advance of Haring’s 1984 ‘World Tour.’ Embroidered imagery above drawing makes for a striking juxtaposition that would look fantastic displayed in any setting. Medium: Marker on hat brim; cotton based painter’s hat featuring embroidered imagery above hand drawing and signature on brim; stitching on the reverse reads: “Keith Haring World Tour 1984”. 10 x 8 x 3 in. (25.4 x 20.3 x 7.6 cm.) Drawing & signature: well-preserved black marker drawing in good overall vintage condition. Hat: Fair overall vintage condition; some staining to skull area; center bending to brim; some signs of aging & use. Accompanied by a COA from Lot 180 Gallery New York _ Keith Haring rose to prominence in 1980s New York within the East Village art scene alongside Jean-Michel Basquiat, Kenny Scharf, and Jenny Holzer. He bridged the gap between the art world and the street, graffiting city subways and sidewalks before committing to a studio practice. Haring united the appeal of cartoons with the raw energy of Art Brut artists such as Jean DuBuffet as he developed a distinct pop-graffiti aesthetic that comprised energetic, boldly outlined figures against solid or patterned backdrops. His major themes included exploitation, subjugation, drug abuse, and the threat of nuclear holocaust; Haring boldly engaged with social issues, especially after receiving an AIDS diagnosis in 1987. Today, his work sells for seven figures at auction and has been the subject of solo shows at the Brooklyn Museum, the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, The Broad Museum Los Angeles and the Albertina Museum in Vienna, among other key institutions.
