Artist: Ian Billman
Grade: 2
School: Liberty Bell Elementary School
Title: Acrobat Men
Type: Hybrid

"Keith Haring started drawing men without eyes, and I learned that at school, so I started drawing men like he did.” 

Ian came to us as a second grader from Southern Lehigh School District, and impressed us not only with his artistic talent, but with how well-studied he is at his craft.


Ian’s work, “Acrobat Men,” utilizes multiple mediums and takes its visual influence from Keith Haring, the prominent 1980s American artist and political activist whose style became synonymous with political expression.
