This monumental painting stands at approximately six feet tall, representing one of the largest paintings in Haring's Red-Yellow-Blue series. It shows the artist's mature practice, which increasingly transitioned away from his graphic style of cartoons and New York club culture to works inspired by European art history. Beginning in 1987, Haring executed a series of works with a limited palette of black and primary colors, utilizing his signature fluid line. Paying homage to European masters such as Picasso and Dubuffet, Red-Yellow-Blue #24 explores primitivist and modernist traditions, depicting a central, abstract figure that recalls Picasso’s Cubist portraits and the symbolism of traditional African masks, rendered in Haring’s bold, confident style.

In 2023, a major survey exhibition, Keith Haring: Art is for Everybody, will be presented at the Broad, the first-ever exhibition of Haring's work to be held in Los Angeles.
