Keith Haring: The Political Line

The Musée d’Art Moderne de la Ville de Paris, in collaboration with Le Centquatre art centre, presents a major retrospective dedicated to American artist Keith Haring.

The exhibition highlights in particular the political content often present in the work of Haring who used his pop art to speak out against issues such as apartheid and homophobia.

There are some 250 pieces on display altogether, the majority of them in the museum but also including his monumental Ten Commandments series at the Centquatre on 5 rue Curial.

Most of the artist's best known canvases, tarpaulins and art from subway walls are on show, all featuring his trademark graphic, emblematic designs that secured his fame before his untimely death in 1990.

Tues-Sun 10.00-18.00. Thurs 10.00-18.00.
