Visual Description:This energetic composition depicts a central, dancing figure with a television-like head, rendered in bold black silhouette and animated by sweeping, curvilinear limbs. The figure is surrounded by two radiant, simplified human forms in coral tones, their bodies extending outward in dynamic motion.The vibrant orange ground is densely filled with rhythmic marks, symbols, and radiant lines, creating a pulsating visual field that suggests sound, movement, and electronic energy. Abstract motifs—including floating objects, directional lines, and repetitive graphic marks—activate the entire surface, leaving no area untouched by motion.The strong contrast between saturated orange, coral, black, and muted green reinforces the composition’s graphic immediacy. The imagery reflects themes of technology, communication, and collective energy, hallmarks of mid-1980s pop-inflected urban art.Attribution:This work is offered in the style of Keith Haring.In the Style of — Definition:“In the style of” refers to a work created by an unidentified artist whose manner and visual language are strongly influenced by the named artist, without asserting authorship by that artist.Source: Getty Art & Architecture Thesaurus.Market Context:Works executed in the style of Haring and associated with the mid-1980s pop and street-art movement remain highly desirable within the secondary market for their bold imagery, cultural relevance, and strong decorative appeal.
