Original chalk drawing of the New York subway (ca. 1980) by Keith Haring. Keith Haring is known for his "subway drawings," which he made in the 1980s. These drawings were often made quickly with chalk on blank billboards on the New York City Subway. They are characterized by simple, recognizable figures, such as dancing people and barking dogs, often in bright colors. Haring used the metro as his canvas to make art accessible to a wide audience. His work in the Subway became an iconic part of the New York art scene and contributed to his rise as an influential artist. Provenance: Lecompte family, Knokke.
