Blast from the Past

As a teenager with a subscription to Interview magazine in the 80's, I sat on my bed thumbing through every issue longing to be in New York City and part of Andy Warhol's downtown scene. Unfortunately, I was way too young to drop out of grade school.

Now, as an artist living in New York City, the art scene of the 80's is officially a thing of the past. But seeing a Keith Haring mural in situ is very exciting even if it is a re-creation of the real thing. The Keith Haring Foundation in a collaboration with Deitch Projects has recreated one of Keith Haring's murals from 1982. The mural is located on right on New York's famous Houston Street (the "Ho" in SoHo) and will be on view through December 31, 2008.
