Andy Mouse , 1986
76 x 76 cm (h x w)
Silkscreen

Andy Mouse is the fusion between Disney’s Mickey Mouse, a favorite character of Haring’s from his childhood, and Andy Warhol, Haring’s close friend and a leading Pop Art artist. Each work is part of a series of four silkscreen prints on paper, all of which are signed by both Keith Haring and Andy Warhol. The images of cartoon-like Andy Mouse and the dollar bills depict the irony found in a money driven capitalist society. The signatures of both artists mark a bridge between two different generations.
