About the Item

Hand signed by the artist in felt pen, upper center, 'K. Haring' for Keith Haring (American, 1958-1990), circa 1982. A postcard titled, 'Mural, Houston at Bowery, New York City, July 1982. Serie 78: Neue Maler, New York'; published by Gebruder Konig Postkartenverlag of Koln and printed in Germany. Provenance: Southern California estate. One of the key figures in New York's East Village art scene in the 1970s and 1980s, Keith Haring developed a unique and distinctly personal vocabulary of bold, graphic icons—barking dogs, flying saucers, winged figures, and a crawling "radiant baby"—which he combined with abstract marks and patterns in exuberant and, often, densely packed compositions. Haring attended the Ivy School of Professional Art in Pittsburgh before relocating to New York City and enrolling in The School of Visual Arts. In New York, he was swept up in the energy and spirit of the thriving alternative art community. He was also drawn to the interactive nature of Christo’s installations and to the intersection of art and life in the work of Andy Warhol. Haring devoted much of his time and energy to public works, which were often the vehicle social messages. Between 1982 and 1989, he produced more than 50 public artworks in dozens of cities around the world, many of which were created to support charities, hospitals, children’s day care centers and orphanages.
