Wallpaper 1920x1200 created in homage to Keith Haring with Ray Larabies (Typodermic) playful and silly typeface»Thump«.
»Thump is a striking, fat, casual, sans-serif headliner. In OpenType-savvy applications, common letter pairs are automatically substituted to create a pseudo-random, ultra-casual effect.«
With this wallpaper I want to commemorate »Keith Haring—prolific artist and social activist—on the 20th anniversary of his death (February 16, 1990).
Quote by Keith Haring: »My contribution to the world is my ability to draw. I will draw as much as I can for as many people as I can for as long as I can. Drawing is still basically the same as it has been since prehistoric times. It brings together man and the world. It lives through magic.«
"Red is one of the strongest colors, it's blood, it has a power with the eye."
- Keith Haring
Thank you Jan for id'ing these as crabapples!
This church in Piazza S. Antonio was built in the 19th century. XIV.
It is famous for the mural painted (on one side of the church, 'Tuttomondo') by the American artist Keith Haring of 1989.
By R Crumb and His Cheap Suit Serenaders. I couldn't find a full version online, only a sample on amazon, although here is a fine, fine rendition by a fan.
(I would have put one of my very Crumb-ian legs in the shot, but I hadn't shaved them yet...I do have standards, y'all.)

I guess I do not need to write too much about Keith. He was a regular at Club 57 and had his first shows there. He took off as an artist not so long after. An inspiring person and artist of the early 80's in New York. I photographed him at one of his first shows outside of Club 57 somewhere on the west side of New York City.

Week one of 52 Photographs is a portrait using a mirror. I decided to go for a self portrait to kick things off the way I did last year. Next week's prompt is to fill the frame with purple things!
This quite striking temporary addition to the gallery logo, is probably inspired by the current exhibition of work by the late Gay artist, Keith Haring (1958-1990), and the enfant terrible of the New York art scene, Jean-Michel Basquiat (1960-1988).
My very recent post of a canvas recreation of one of the first handball court masterpieces played an important part in the evolution of graffiti. While viewing this Keith Haring masterpiece the interesting art history story continues to unfold at the site of this East Harlem handball court. A still intact handball court that helped escalate graffiti from vandalism to art in the public eye can be seen to this day.
There were two distinct ways this wall played an important role in graffiti art history. The first positive impression was a matter of real estate, location and exposure. Right alongside of the FDR Drive, unlike the authoritarian viewpoint of graffiti art that must date back to ancient Rome, east side automobile commuters saw a graffiti social message every morning.
The other means of elevation was one of changing views at the level of government. When Keith Haring painted this handball court wall it was not sanctioned, in fact this masterpiece started out as an act of vandalism, but once the Department of Parks took notice and ever since the work has been treated as a protected work of art. The park has even changed the name of the park and the wall has become a NYC landmark.
The mural is of great historic value beyond art history now. For each morning commuter, the wall is a reminder of how this shining city was a few decades back. 1986, the raging crack-cocaine epidemic and the way this city seemed like a burned out war zone. Today this cry against an epidemic that was destroying the city has become a positive message of social progress.
