Keith Haring makes me like contemporary art.
Keith Haring (galeries-bartoux) For the longest time, I despised and did not understand Modern Art and Contemporary Art in general. That's one of the reasons I'm taking this class. I love art I love history and by taking this class I'm realizing why contemporary and Modern Artists are the way they are. I never understood why artists could just tape a banana to a wall and call it art and sell it for millions of dollars or someone could throw scribbles and paint splatter on a canvas and call it a masterpiece. I truly did not understand how something so simple and something that could be done by literally anyone could be seen as a masterful piece of artwork. That all changed when I found out about Keith Haring Keith Haring's artwork at its surface level is not that incredible technically speaking it's flat there are not that many dimensions he uses a similar color palette throughout all of his pieces and there's virtually no fine detail. that all being said
