Keith Haring fans take note: a newly unearthed 1989 documentary about the making of “Tuttomondo” will have its world premiere on Dec. 20.
The film follows Haring as he explores Pisa, paints the now-iconic mural, and gives an extended interview — including the moment he lands on the title Tuttomondo. The screening also includes a first look at his previously unseen Polaroids, digital paintings and animations created in Italy.
A Q&A will follow with producer Andrea De Gioia, photographer Adrian Wilson (who’s bringing a working Quantel Paintbox to demo Haring’s digital process), and painter and Club 57 co-founder Frank Holliday. Filmmaker Brian (“Make Me Famous“) Vincent moderates the discussion.
The afternoon (1-3) event, held at the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual & Transgender Community Center on West 13th Street near Seventh Avenue (where Haring “famously painted a mural in the bathroom a month before heading to Pisa”), is free but ticketed, with no walk-ins. Only 100 spots are available.
Tickets become available tomorrow at noon here.
