Included in this exhibition are 70 paintings, drawings and one sculpture spanning from works Keith Haring created for his first gallery exhibition in 1982 to others made closer to his death in 1990 at the age of 31. The exhibit also includes 33 works by other artists who were important friends and artistic peers in Haring's life. Haring's colorful and playful, yet equally powerful, acidic work records the lively engagement of art and culture that represented a key aspect of the New York art scene of the 1980s.
