A fortuitous meeting had led to the realization of the project, thanks to the fundamental role of the young Italian student Piergiorgio Castellani, who during his stay in New York had had the opportunity to meet the artist: his curiosity and interest had led to the creation of a strong bond between the two, culminating precisely in the arrival of Haring in Italy for the construction of the work, strongly supported by the municipal administration of the city which managed to obtain, almost incredibly, the consent of the convent of which the church made part.<\/p>\n
Thus was born a work perfectly integrated into the urban context, vehicle of a universal message of peace that went beyond any ideology and difference.<\/p>\n
More than thirty years later, Pisa returns to celebrate its bond with Keith Haring, dedicating a monographic exhibition to him at the Palazzo Blu, home to the collections of the Pisa Foundation, as well as a catalyst center for exhibitions and events dedicated to art and culture.<\/p>\n

The cartoon images, the bright colors and the thick lines have always wanted to convey messages of a certain depth, which expressed the problems and concerns of the society that Keith Haring knew and lived, transforming into iconic images that have guaranteed him the ‘immortality, recognizing a fundamental role in the artistic context of the second half of the twentieth century, and which still today speak to those who admire them with an incredible ability to remain constantly contemporary.<\/p>\n
