The artwork “Untitled (Dance)” by Keith Haring, created in 1987, is a prominent example of the Neo-Expressionism and Pop Art movements. This piece is categorized as a poster and encapsulates Haring’s distinctive style that revolutionized contemporary art.
The artwork depicts a vibrant and dynamic scene of five human figures engaged in dance, rendered in bold, flat colors with thick, black outlines. The figures are executed in colors of red, blue, green, and orange against a bright yellow background. Their abstract forms convey movement and rhythm through the simplicity of lines and shapes, while small curved lines around the figures suggest motion and energy. The green floor is dotted with black, adding texture and grounding the dance scene. Haring’s characteristic use of vivid colors and animated figures brings a sense of joy and exuberance to the piece, capturing the essence of movement and communal expression.
