Lot No. 243


Keith Haring


(Kutztown 1958–1990 New York)
Untitled, 1987, signed and dated; signed, dated and dedicated on the reverse, marker on skateboard, 77 x 25 x 1.5 cm, within plexiglass case

This work is registered in The Estate of Keith Haring, New York and is accompanied by a photo certificate of authenticity

Provenance:
David Hausmann Collection, New York
European Private Collection

Note:
The skateboard features two sides: the first (main image) with a black marker intervention across the entire surface; the second (backside) has an additional black marker intervention in the lower section with the signature and dedication, and the colored upper part is screen-printed with the artist's typical motifs.

Art lives through the imaginations of the people who are seeing it. Without that contact, there is no art.
I have made myself a role as an image-maker of the twentieth century and I daily try to understand the responsibilities and implications of that position. It has become increasingly clear to me that art is not an elitist activity reserved for the appreciation of a few, but for everyone, and that is the end toward which I will continue to work.
