Keith Haring
Journey of the Radiant Baby

by: Ron Roth, Rachel Arauz and Others





 
Keith Haring remains one of the most influential and controversial artists of the late Twentieth century. Since his untimely death in 1990 at age thirty-one, scholars have begun to evaluate how Haring reshaped the art world in the 1980s and his social activism on urgent topics of his era such as AIDS, nuclear weapons proliferation, and apartheid. Keith Haring: Journey of the Radiant Babyexamines Haring's artistic relationship with youth culture, from Disney and Smurfs to his own Radiant Baby, graffiti, hip-hop, and the East Village club scene; and his extraordinary collaborations with young friends and artists such as LA's Kenny Scharf, Basquiat, Sean Kalish, Zena Scharf, Sean Lennon, Jason Rubell, and Nina Clemente. Keith Haring: Journey of the Radiant Baby features some of Haring's best-known and iconic work, including tarps, sculpture, furniture and paintings.


Keith Haring: Journey of the Radiant Baby is the lavish and outsize catalogue for the forthcoming landmark exhibition at the Reading Public Museum, Reading, PA. It is a work of new scholarship with essays by contributing scholars and interviews with Nina Clemente, Yoko Ono, Kenny Scharf, Zena Scharf Kristen and Kay Haring, Sean Kalish, Irving Zucker and Laurie Meadhoff.
