Keith Haring at FUN Gallery. 1983.
Keith Haring created an exciting, mazy motion to promote his own exhibition at FUN Gallery at 254 East 10th Street in the East Village in February, 1983. He personally financed the prints, and handed them out to fans who flocked the gallery. “FUN Gallery was a place where neighborhood kids, downtown artists, b-boys, rock, film, and rap stars mixed with museum directors art historians and uptown collectors at wild openings featuring artists like Futura, Fab 5 Freddy, Lee Quinones, Kenny Scharf, Keith Haring and Jean Michel Basquiat," PAPER Magazine reminisced in 2012. Though the gallery only survived for four years, its heralding of boundary-busting experimentation helped pivot the art world as we know it.
