A Swiss Silk Screen Art Print (measures 27 1/2" x 39 1/4" [70 x 100 cm]) (Learn More) Keith Haring was a pop and street artist from the 1980s. Haring's work grew to iconic popularity from his exuberant spontaneous drawings in New York subways, and after gaining public recognition he began creating larger scale murals based on social and political themes. He passed away in 1990 at the age of 30 from complications of AIDS. Artist: Keith Haring Important Added Info: Note that this poster was printed by Albin Uldry in Berne, Switzerland and is one of 3 "Lucky Strike" posters that Haring created (we are offering the other two in separate auctions). Note that silkscreen (also known as screen printing) is a printing technique whereby a mesh is used to transfer ink onto a poster. Only one color is printed at a time, so several screens must be used to produce a multicolored design, and it is a laborious technique because it is traditionally all done by hand. Because of the rich thickness of the layer of color on the paper and the resulting depth and brilliance achieved through silkscreen printing, this technique was preferred by many artists throughout many cultures and periods. Condition: very good. Some of the printed areas have minor scuffing, but overall it is in pretty nice condition. Learn More about condition grades
