Three Dancing Figures

Posted by
Steven (Chicagoland, United States) on 7 December 2021 in Art & Design and Portfolio.

A social activist and artist, Keith Haring, created accessible and public art that could be enjoyed and understood universally. He found inspiration in the graffiti, animation, and chaos of New York City. His human figures, reduced to basic lines, shapes, and bright colors, are often portrayed brimming with energy and dancing.

Spotted in the John and Mary Pappajohn Sculpture Park in Des Moines, Iowa on October 12, 2021.

Excellent colour and energy in these figures. A well captured diptych. I hadn't realised he was a sculptor as well as a painter.

If there were five figures, it could even be a symbol of the Olympic games.
