Haring's faceless figures embody a world of diversity, representing all people as equal individuals regardless of gender, race, religion, or sexual orientation. Inspired by his visits to Japan in 1983 and 1988, Haring opened his second Pop Shop in Tokyo, leaving a lasting impact on Japanese pop culture. This basketball serves as a symbol of global influence on the game and the game's impact on the world, paying tribute to the boundless inspiration found in all corners of the globe, a value cherished by Haring himself. This limited edition piece includes an authentic replica of the artist's signature, officially licensed by the Keith Haring Foundation. It is presented in an Official Collectors Edition box, with designation by round21 and licensing from Artestar, New York.
