Rare signed catalogue printed to accompany Haring's solo exhibition at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Bordeaux, held from December 15, 1985 to January 23, 1986. Signed and dated by Haring in the year of publication, and with an original drawing by him of the "Radiant Baby", his tag and one of his most famous motifs. The figure of a baby crawling with radiating lines of energy is one of Haring's most recognized motifs and became his tag. In his 1986 journal, the artist wrote: "The reason that the ‘baby’ has become my logo or signature is that it is the purest and most positive experience of human existence... Children are color-blind and still free of all the complications, greed and hatred that will slowly be instilled in them through life" (Andrea Codrington, "Keith's Kids", Sphere Magazine, 1997).
