Andy Mouse (complete set) Keith Haring

KEITH HARING, ANDY MOUSE (COMPLETE SET), ANDY MOUSE SERIES, SIGNED SCREEN PRINTS, EDITION OF 30, 1986

Entitled Andy Mouse, this characteristically playful set of prints is testament to the relationship between Keith Haring and Andy Warhol, the undisputed father of the Pop Art movement. Warhol’s influence on Haring was undeniable, in Haring’s own words, ‘Warhol’s life and work made my work possible. … he was the first real public artist and his art and his life changed our conception of art and life in the 20th century’.

ABOUT KEITH HARING

Known for his bold graphic style and playful sense of humour, Keith Haring is one of the most influential and adored artists of the 20th century.

Born in Pennsylvania, in 1958, Haring was a talented draughtsman as a child and developed his cartoonish style at the hands of his father and the work of Walt Disney and Dr Seuss. However it would take some time before he realised he could marry this kind of drawing with being a fine artist. Upon graduating from high school he enrolled in a commercial art school before realising he had little interest in pursuing a career as an illustrator or graphic designer. After dropping out of college he joined the hippie movement and hitchhiked across the country where he made anti-Nixon t-shirts to pay for food and Grateful Dead tickets.
