Product description
Title : Orginal Subway Drawing 68 x 47 cm
Time created : early 1980s
Technique : Chalk on paper, mounted on board.
Edition : unique
Most subway drawings were done on blank sheets of black paper used by advertising companies as temporary "holding posts" until a printed ad could be placed in place. These sheets of black paper were glued into recessed panels, forcing anyone who wanted to remove one to tear or cut it out. Because people who tried to remove them worked in haste, for fear of being noticed by police patrolling the subway or other bystanders, most subway drawings show imperfections - especially around the edges This work is sold as attributed to Keith Haring since the Keith Haring Studio LLC, does not authenticate any subway drawings.
