Keith Haring designed this colourful set of 3 posters for the 17th Montreux Jazz Festival in Switzerland. The Festival is held on the Shores of Lake Geneva and started in 1967. Since then, the posters have been designed by artists such as Andy Warhol, Jean Tinguely, Niki de Saint Phalle, Max Bill and Julian Opie, among others. Cancelled this year due to Corona Virus, the Festival was due to star Lionel Richie, Black Pumas and Lenny Kravitz.
