About the Item

Keith Haring Cover Art 1986: A rare highly collectible 1986 art publication featuring standout cover art by Keith Haring. Offset printed cover art and interior illustrations; softcover; 150+ pages. Text in Spanish. Approximately 6x8 inches. Some minor wear commensurate with age & medium; in otherwise good overall vintage condition. Keith Haring printed signature lower front right; from an edition of unknown; seldom comes to market; rare. 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, and the Albertina Museum in Vienna, among other institutions.
