This dynamic black and white drawing is characteristic of Haring’s mature period marked by intense productivity and experimentation. Its puzzle-like composition dedicates itself to the animated figures and archetypal forms rendered in the artist’s signature graphic style which he developed through a series of subway drawings. The accessibility and potency of Haring’s work encouraged an era of activism and promoted a sense of community throughout New York City in the 1980s.
