The Ace Theater (2023)
Presented in conjunction with The Broad’s special exhibition Keith Haring: Art Is for Everybody, this iteration of The Un-Private Collection conversation series features legendary dancer/choreographer and Haring collaborator Bill T. Jones with Haring biographer Brad Gooch.
The pair discussed the storied life and iconic work of artist Keith Haring and the energy and spirit of the experiences they all lived in New York City in the 1980s. Jones will share recollections of his personal friendship with Haring and their multiple collaborations, while Gooch will share from his deeply researched knowledge of the artist who rose to stardom at a young age and left a legacy of vibrant artwork and social activism when his life was cut short due to AIDS-related complications.
