Product Description

Pisa is much more than the Leaning Tower, the River Arno’s sweeping bend, and Galileo Galilei Airport. On behalf of Toscana Promozione Turistica, Tuscany’s regional tourism bureau, the Florentine spent a day in Pisa investigating all things artistic. Because of the mural he painted on the back wall of the Sant’Antonio Abate church in 1989, Keith Haring has a permanent presence in Pisa. When Pisa-born student Piergiorgio Castellani encountered Haring on the streets of Manhattan’s East Village, the idea for a painting in Pisa came to him by happenstance. The kid encouraged the artist to make a significant work of art in Pisa because he is known for being approachable and producing public murals in international locales. The artwork, which resembles a puzzle, features 30 figurines drawn in a cartoonish style with themes of peace and harmony. Haring drew inspiration from his surroundings to create a work that was in tune with its social setting, instead than using his typical primary colors.
