KEITH HARING: GRACE HOUSE MURAL
February 26 @ 12:00 pm - August 22 @ 5:00 pm
Free – $10
For the first time since it was created, cut-outs from a site-specific painting that Haring executed in 1983-84 for those living at Grace House, a Catholic youth center in Manhattan, will go on display at MCA Denver. Grace House Mural was designed specifically to inspire and elevate the spirits of some of New York’s at-risk teens and includes some of his most iconic motifs: the “Radiant Baby”, “Barking Dog”, and dancing figures. This work is part of a select group of Haring murals–of the forty-five created during his lifetime, less than half remain today.
