Powerful Babies brought together a diverse group of contemporary artists from across the United States and Northern Europe to celebrate Keith Harings legacy on the 25th anniversary of his death. The selection of artists for the 2015 exhibition at Spritmuseum, Stockholm was made by Bill Arning, Director of Contemporary Arts Museum Houston, and Rick Herron, New York-based independent curator. From symbols to social practice, Haring's influence reverberates throughout the contemporary art landscape in new and unexpected ways. The exhibition included artists whose practices exemplify the innovation and veracity for which Harings work is known, as well as his embrace of humour, dance and nightlife, and social and political activism. Participating artists: Alexander Tovborg, Allen Grubesic, J. Morrison, Jaimie Warren, Jeanette Hayes, Joakim Ojanen, John Hanning, Juliana Huxtable, Katherine Bernhardt, Klara Liden, Kristina Matousch, Lori Ellison, M Lamar, Michael Alan, Misaki Kawai, Przemek Pyszczek, Raul de Nieves, Scooter LaForge, Steven Evans, Tad Beck, Thedra Cullar-Ledford, and Trenton Doyle Hancock. Published in conjunction with the exhibition at Spritmuseum in Stockholm.

Frank Bowling started as a figurative painter but he quickly moved towards larger and ever more complex abstract pieces. Influenced by his interest in the principles of mathematics and symmetry as well as experiments with staining, pouring and layering, his ambitious paintings are known for their distinctive textured surfaces and their colourful, luminous quality. Bowlings paintings embody his ongoing pursuit of change, transformation and renewal. The exhibition this book accompanied takes its title from the painting Traingone (1996). Behind Bowlings titles there is often a story or piece of wordplay linking the artwork to people, places and memories. The story behind Traingone relates to a memory of growing up in Guyana. Near a remote railway station, deep in the forest, where the trains stopped only briefly, there was an isolated hospital for lepers. The resident patients often went to the station to peddle their goods, but frequently they didnt make it before the train was off again and the cry would go up, Train gone! The title also alludes to saxophonist John Coltrane, a.k.a. Trane (1926 1967), whose music was ever-present in Frank Bowlings studio. This book was published in conjunction with his exhibition at Spritmuseum in Stockholm, Sweden.
