Description:
|
Haring developed his trademark style working on the black surfaces used to cover up old advertising logos in the New York subway. Later, Haring painted on materials from hardware stores such as tarpaulin or muslin. Derived as much from figures in recent art history, like Pierre Alechinsky and Jean Dubuffet, as from cartooning, his drawings and paintings were often created in minutes.
