The artwork, titled “Paris Mural,” was created by Keith Haring in 1987. It belongs to the Street art and Post-Painterly Abstraction movements and falls under the genre of mural art.
The artwork features a tall column adorned with Haring’s characteristic vibrant and dynamic style, showcasing a variety of abstract, colorful human figures and shapes. These motifs intertwine and overlap, creating a sense of movement and energy that contrasts dramatically with the modern, reflective glass facade of the adjacent building. Bright reds, greens, blues, and yellows dominate the mural, with Haring’s iconic bold black lines clearly defining each shape and figure. This piece exemplifies Haring’s ability to bring street art into public spaces, transforming urban environments with his distinctive visual language.
