Andy Warhol & Keith Haring: Party of Life

With “Andy Warhol & Keith Haring. Party of Life,” Museum Brandhorst presents the world’s first comprehensive institutional exhibition dedicated to the two artists. The title of the show borrows the motto from Keith Haring’s birthday celebrations: “Party of Life” relays the cosmos of the 1980s, of MTV, discos, vogueing, hip-hop, New Wave, and graffiti. The exhibition traces Haring’s and Warhol’s friendship in this environment. With over 130 works it reveals parallels in their artistic identity, their openness to cooperation and collaborative projects, as well as well as a shared vision: Art should be accessible to all and reach as many people as possible.
