Keith Allen Haring's Untitled exemplifies his distinctive Figurative style, characterized by animated, bold lines and simplified forms rooted in the Neo-expressionism movement. Emerging from the 1980s New York City graffiti subculture, his work often incorporates sexual allusions that serve as social activism, notably advocating for safe sex and AIDS awareness.
