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 (2)' by Keith Haring is an etching from 1989, hand-numbered from an edition of 80, and measures 25.4 × 22.8 cm. Executed entirely in spare black line on white paper, it depicts a broad-shouldered, bare-chested figure rising above a dense press of upstretched arms and grasping hands. The central figure holds aloft a radiating orb in one hand while gripping a tangle of looping vines or wires in the other; a jagged, electric treeline runs across the upper register. Haring developed his signature visual language — bold, unmodulated contour, radiating energy lines, figures reduced to legible symbol — through years of spontaneous subway drawing in 1980s New York. The etching medium is atypical for him, replacing the rapid chalk of the subway with the deliberate incision of the plate, yet the imagery retains its characteristic immediacy. The crowd of hands below reads as collective yearning or adoration, a motif Haring returned to repeatedly in his late-decade work.

What is Comic Strip Art?
Comic strip art refers to artwork that utilizes the subject matter and commercial printing techniques found in comic strips. In the 1960s, a group of artists began creating paintings that incorporated Ben-Day dots—commonly used in comics and advertising—to produce highly graphic designs in bright colors, using traditional art media.
