Red8 Gallery, London;
private collection, UK
Exhibited:
with Red8 Gallery, London, 'Keith Haring: Subway Drawings', 2023
Note:
in 1980, Haring noticed that blank advertising spaces in New York subways were covered with matte black paper. Over the next five years, he would ride the subway and quickly complete these drawings before jumping on the next train. He did this practice nearly every day for five years.
Chandler Wade, a New York maintenance worker, amassed a collection of these which he sold to a New York based dealer to fund his retirement.
Since 1st September, 2012, the Keith Haring Foundation no longer authenticates artworks.
