Keith Haring, Man with Snake, man with snake sculpture, acrylic sculpture.

About the Item

Edition: 42/50 Man with Snake is a dynamic and vibrant sculpture by Keith Haring, rendered in Plexiglas, which is a type of acrylic material known for its transparency and durability. The piece exemplifies Haring's signature style, characterized by bold lines, simple figures, and a sense of movement and energy. The sculpture depicts a stylized human figure, drawn in Haring's iconic graphic style, with the figure's arms raised in a gesture that could signify both confrontation and control. The snake, a recurrent motif in Haring's work, winds around the figure, adding a layer of tension and interaction between the two forms. The choice of Plexiglas for this sculpture allows the piece to play with light, creating interesting reflections and shadows that enhance its visual impact. The material also gives the sculpture a modern, sleek finish, in line with Haring's aesthetic, which often bridges the gap between fine art and popular culture. Haring's Man with Snake can be interpreted in various ways, reflecting the artist's exploration of themes like power, danger, and human interaction with nature. The snake could symbolize a variety of things, from temptation and fear to transformation and renewal, depending on the viewer's perspective. Context: Keith Haring was deeply influenced by street art and graffiti culture, which is evident in the bold and graphic quality of this sculpture. The piece is a three-dimensional extension of his two-dimensional works, bringing his flat, iconic characters into the physical space. This sculpture is part of a broader body of work in which Haring experimented with different materials and forms, moving beyond his well-known murals and paintings to explore new dimensions of his art. Man with Snake is a powerful example of how Haring's work transcends simple imagery to engage with complex themes and provoke thought.
