Nissan with Louis (after Haring)

Pairing:
Untitled graffiti art by Keith Haring
Image of Louis Armstrong

Acrylic on canvas
Dimensions: 24" x 31"

Artist's Insights:
Q. The light reflecting off the engine hood illunimates Louis' face as if spotlighting his performance.

A. I'm a jazz enthusiast and a huge Armstrong fan. When I spotted the picture of him in his younger years, smiling and singing, I thought it was glorious. The Nissan is probably not classified as a "muscle car" as such but its double grille and large frame are appropriate for the outsized talent and presence of the Father of Jazz.
