Description
Keith Haring's iconic subway artwork from the 1980s is presented in this collection of 31 drawings. Created by celebrated artist Keith Haring (1958-1990), these bold graphic line drawings were originally displayed on New York City's advertising panels throughout the city's subway system. The artworks, which conveyed socially conscious and humorous messages, remain a significant part of popular culture. The project was undertaken over a five-year period, with Haring producing a massive body of work that has had a lasting impact on public consciousness. Due to their temporary nature, only documentary photographs and legend now remain of this epic conquest of civic space. This book reproduces archival materials relating to the project alongside essays by leading experts. Keith Haring: 31 Subway Drawings offers a unique insight into this remarkable body of work, providing a fascinating look at the artist's vision and creative process.
