Keith Haring

Andy Mouse 2 (Littmann P. 64) by Keith Haring shows a figure that merges Andy Warhol with Mickey Mouse and carries a playful, light-hearted tone rooted in Haring’s early interest in cartoons.
The image centres on the Andy Mouse figure, set against a vivid green background and surrounded by Haring’s signature dancing figures. Rendered in bright, contrasting colours, these smaller forms animate the surface, their repeated gestures creating a sense of movement that radiates outward from the central character. The oversized mouse ears and red sunglasses and “fright-wig”play on Warhol’s curated look and establish the fusion immediately. Cartoons were a formative influence on Haring, and his admiration for The Walt Disney Company runs throughout his work. Here, that influence is combined with Warhol’s constructed public image, producing a figure that operates as both homage and invention.
The dancing figures play a central role, echoing the motifs that defined Haring’s street drawings and public murals. Their repeated poses create a continuous visual rhythm, giving the work an open, celebratory quality. Rather than isolating the central figure, they integrate it into a broader field of movement, shifting the image from portrait toward collective energy.
