Untitled 1981Poster con cornice

Untitled 1981 by Keith Haring uses black lines on a light ground. Thick outlines loop and cross, with small figures and shapes tucked between them. The black sits hard against the pale background, so every turn of the line stands out.

The framed poster is a printed sheet set in a wooden frame with a back panel. It comes already put together, so you just decide where it goes. The frame holds the paper flat and keeps the edges neat.

In a home office, the black lines pull your eye from the desk. You notice how one loop leads into the next, and the paper stays flat behind the wood.
