The Valley is a portfolio by Keith Haring and the writer William S. Burroughs from 1989. It consists of 31 sheets, 16 of which are etchings by Keith Haring.
Haring drew the drawings for the etchings on copper plates, by hand, in his studio in New York. Burroughs wrote 16 sheets of text by hand, which were printed in red ink.
The text of The Valley is a chapter from the 1987 novel The Western Lands by William S. Burroughs. This story, about people living in a crack, not knowing where they came from or where they went, is both absurd and relatable.
This was the last collaboration between Keith Haring and William S. Burroughs, as Keith Haring died of AIDS a few months later, in February 1990.
Provenance: Estate George Mulder Foundation of George Mulder Fine Arts New York.
George Mulder was a good friend and publisher of Keith Haring, Andy Warhol and David Hockney, among others.
