The exhibition “Keith Haring: Art to the Streets” will be held at Mori Arts Center Gallery in Roppongi, Tokyo from December 9, 2023 to February 25, 2024.
Keith Haring is an American painter who sent a strong message to a chaotic society by spreading his art into everyday life, such as inside subway stations and on the streets, mainly in New York City in the 1980s, In his 31 years of life, he was only active as an artist for about 10 years, but he continued to appeal through his art for the renunciation of nuclear weapons, the celebration of sexual minorities coming out, and safe sex to prevent HIV and AIDS.
The exhibition is organized in six chronological and thematic chapters, bringing together approximately 150 works, ranging from iconic pieces such as the “Icons” series of prints to large artworks measuring up to six meters in length. Visitors can experience Keith Haring’s art, which addresses the violence and inequality that lurk in society and entrusts the future of humanity and hope to children.
