Haring's humorous drawings envision New York as the city of the phallusSynonymous with the 1980s downtown New York art scene and embraced by popular culture for his peppy line drawings of dancing figures, Keith Haring (1958-90) blended a cheery optimism and an active sense of humor with a populist, activist commitment in his work. Arriving in New York in 1978 to study at the School of Visual Arts, he experimented with performance, video, installation and collage, and found himself increasingly involved in an alternative art community that showed its work in the streets and nightclubs; Haring himself would find a uniquely effective platform for his drawings in the unused advertising panels scattered throughout the subway system.Manhattan Penis Drawings for Ken Hicks collects one singular series of Haring's drawings: a series of cartoonish penises inspired by the city of Manhattan, made in the late 1970s. Sometimes the inspiration is quite literal, as in a drawing of the Twin Towers reimagined as two erect penises. Other times, the relation is more atmospheric, as in the drawing of a frenzied mass of penises evoking the hustle and bustle of the city but also recalling the dynamism of Futurist painting, captioned "Drawing penises in front of The Museum of Modern Art."

Very odd creatures adolescent boys are. If it's not their dick it's some other tangle of crap they're sorting out - how to talk to girls, or boys, why won't João and Carlos let me play footie, why do my feet stink, why won't my ears sit flat ... questions, questions, questions flooding the minds of young people today. It's only an issue if they raise it - be it ears, feet or dick ... OK, maybe not the feet. But you get my drift... the trick is to have the sort of relationship where they can raise anything they're worried by and not be mocked, scorned or jeered at. Easily scared off by the rough and tumble treatment they get as younger boys in fact ... learn quickly what not to raise - never ever do.
It's bants, innit? I used to like drawing penises coz it was naughty, therefore funny.....to my immature sense of humour anyway. My mates and I have been taking the piss out of each other for about many years, hope it never stops, part of the art is to be able to take it and give it back in spades and still keep laughing.
Go Keith! ( )
