Bayer Suite 5

Keith Haring’s Bayer Suite 5 is a signed lithograph from his Bayer Suite series that was commissioned in 1982 by Bayer AG on the occasion of the release of the heart medication ‘Sali-Adalat’. A limited edition of 70, the print shows a line drawing of a figure running, with its arms and legs spread outwards and red action lines to emphasise the figure’s movement. The dotted landscape that the figure runs on adds a jarring sense of kinetic energy to the print. Lithograph, 1982 Signed Print Edition of 70 H 30cm x W 24cmH 11.8in x W 9.5in
