Meaning & Analysis

Unlike much of Haring’s work that shows full-bodied stick figures, the head of the creature in this image takes up the entire composition. The portrait materialises from the left side of the print and faces the right with its features squashed into the rectangular-shaped frame. Inspired by ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs, the figure’s eyes are rendered as if viewed from the front whilst the rest of the face is in profile.

This print is typical of Haring’s lithographs that feature his celebrated simplistic drawings in outrageous and comical compositions. This print is depicted in a style that mimics children’s drawings but reveals a message that is entirely adult in tone. Haring produces a painterly quality to the print, notably in his use of red lines, that is a consequence of his use of lithography, a printing process that utilises ink on a pigment-repellent slab of stone or metal.

  • Keith Haring was a luminary of the 1980s downtown New York scene. His distinctive visual language pioneered one-line Pop Art drawings and he has been famed for his colourful, playful imagery. Haring's iconic energetic motifs and figures were dedicated to influencing social change, and particularly challenging stigma around the AIDS epidemic. Haring also pushed for the accessibility of art by opening Pop Shops in New York and Japan, selling a range of ephemera starting from as little as 50 cents. Haring's legacy has been cemented in the art-activism scene and is a testament to power of art to inspire social change
