Keith Haring - Profile

At first his painting seems easy, childlike ease devour itself outline figures on gaudy colored picture reason. But we often discovered at a second glance, a second, dark, often characterized by deep anxiety Embassy. Keith Haring is 1958 in Kutztown (USA) born and died in 1990 in New York from AIDS. From the middle class origins, he is at an early stage by the black graffiti scene influenced. Their radical and spontaneous nature, which is outside the art scene moved, fascinated him. He assumes the Plakativität and the visibility of graffiti, mixes it with its icons, and it creates its design language. He lets them, often shown in sexual poses, motifs on T-shirts, buttons and print crockery and flirts with the market efficiency of his characters by giving them into his own "pop-shops" sold. Pure self-marketing, or is not even the artistic authenticity into question? The icons initially appear to be light fare, but are often associated with Christian, moral and social associations and references intertwined. It is often very verchiffriert further statements will be clear: These reveal, for example, a critical reflection on traditional values, his fear of the AIDS epidemic, as well as the oppression of the black underclass. © ArtLogistics
