New York, with compelling accompanied text essays by Richard D. Marshall and Leo Malca.

The vintage exhibition catalogue book features works by Keith Haring, Jean Michel Basquiat, and Kenny Scharf from the MALCA Fine Art exhibition " In Your Face ". In 1997, parallel to The Keith Haring Retrospective at The Whitney Museum in New York, this exhibit took place in a townhouse across the street from the museums, including the artworks of these three artists, what would become MALCA Fine art's special focus for the next decade and beyond.

These three kings of their generation have made an indelible impression on the worlds that they individually and collectively inhabited. They danced into the Downtown New York music and art world almost simultaneously, and their careers followed an eerily interrelated and overlapping trajectory. The work of each is stylistically unique, however they are united by their age, their environment, their subjects, and their wise social responsibility. More importantly, each contributed an important aesthetic statement to the history of Contemporary and Modern Art.
