Keith Haring: 31 Subway Drawings

A fascinating look at Keith Harings New York City subway artwork from the 1980s

Celebrated artist Keith Haring (19581990) has been embraced by popular culture for his signature bold graphic line drawings of figures and forms. Like other graffiti artists in the 1980s, Haring found an empty canvas in the advertising panels scattered throughout New York Citys subway system, where he communicated his socially conscious, often humorous messages on platforms and train cars.

Over a five-year period, in an epic conquest of civic space, Haring produced a massive body of subway artwork that remains daunting in its scale and its impact on the public consciousness. Dedicated to the individuals who might encounter them and to the moments of their creation, Harings drawings now exist solely in the form of documentary photographs and legend. Because they were not meant to be permanentonly briefly inhabiting blacked-out advertising boards before being covered up by ads or torn down by authorities or admirerswhat little remains of this project is uniquely fugitive. Keith Haring: 31 Subway Drawings reproduces archival materials relating to this magnificent project alongside essays by leading Haring experts.
