Original etching on handmade wove paper - Signed, dated, and numbered in pencil - Published by George Mulder Fine Arts, New York - Suite: The Valley Portfolio
'The Valley (1)' by Keith Haring is an etching from 1989, hand-signed and from a numbered edition, measuring 25.4 × 22.8 cm. Rendered in Haring's characteristic bold, cartoonish line work, the composition is cropped tightly around a large masked figure gripping a handheld microphone — rays radiating from it suggesting broadcast or amplification. A surveillance camera is trained on the scene from the right, while a CDC Atlanta label appears in the upper corner, anchoring the image in the language of institutional public health communication. Made in the final year of Haring's life, as he was publicly navigating his own AIDS diagnosis, this etching channels his Pop and graffiti-rooted visual shorthand toward a pointed commentary on surveillance, authority, and the mediation of epidemic crisis.
