Biography of Keith Haring
Keith Haring is born in Reading (Pennsylvania, USA) in 1958. He joins the Ivy School of Professional Art in Pittsburgh that he leaves quickly. He goes on a personal work and exhibits for the first time in 1978. He leaves the city for New York where he joins the School of Visual Arts, where he becomes friends with Kenny Scharf and Jean-Michel Basquiat. They develop their artistic activities off the beaten track, museums and galleries. In 1980, he knows a significant international reputation with his public interventions, and in 1986 creates the Pop Shop, which distributes his derived objects. He is close to pop performers, poets like W. Burroughs or painters like Andy Warhol. He dies of AIDS in 1990.

A tribute to Keith Haring
Sorry this section is only available in french for now.
En 1988, le dessinateur, peintre et sculpteur américain Keith Haring apprend qu'il est infecté par le virus du sida. Il s'engage dès lors fortement dans la lutte contre cette maladie, mettant son art et sa notoriété au service de cette cause et de sa visibilité. Sa santé se dégrade. Keith Haringn qui incarnait la nouvelle génération des peintres new-yorkais, meurt du sida le 16 février 1990 à Manhattan, New York ; il avait 31 ans. Un service funéraire sera organisé dans la cathédrale Saint-Jean le Divin de New York. Selon ses dernières volonté, l’artiste sera incinéré et ses cendres seront éparpillées dans un champ près de Bowers en Pennsylvanie. En son hommage, avec nos pensées les plus respectueuses, cette rose blanche.
"L'art n'est pas une activité élitiste réservée à l'appréciation d'un nombre réduit d'amateurs, il s'adresse à tout le monde (…) Ma contribution au monde est ma capacité à dessiner." - Keith Haring
"Les enfants savent des choses que la plupart des gens ont oubliées." - Keith Haring
"Je veux être capable de faire concurrence à la télévision." - Keith Haring
"La raison pour laquelle le bébé est devenu mon logo, ma signature, est que c’est l’expérience la plus positive, la plus pure dans la vie humaine. Les enfants personnifient la vie dans sa forme la plus joyeuse." - Keith Haring
"Les figures de Keith Haring glissent aisément à travers les portes de la perception vers les chambres ataviques de la mémoire collective." - Barry Blinderman
"Le dessin n’est pas purement aléatoire, c’est comme, non pas un entraînement mais une expérience, des strates d’expérience qui se sont développées jusqu’à un état où l’on sait où l’on va. Une de mes citations favorites est cette phrase de Louis Pasteur à propos du hasard qui ne favorise que les esprits préparés : « Il s’agit de savoir et de ne pas savoir »." - Keith Haring

Artists on display
The art and the artists display: proclamations, galleries, museums, personal or collective exhibitions. On walls or in shop windows, wise or rebels, posters warn, argue, show. Some were specially conceived by an artist for such or such event, other, colder, have only the letter.
Some were created in lithographic technic, most are simple offset reproductions. They are many those who like collecting these rectangles of paper, monochrome or in games of colours, in matt paper or brilliant, with many words or almost dumb.
We are happy also to be able to greet, by this pages, mythical galleries as those of Denise René, Louis Carré, Claude Bernard, Berheim Jeune, Maeght, Pierre Loeb and others.
