Move over, Manhattan. This month, one of New York City’s most iconic street artists is taking over a dining room with views of it. From today, August 6 through Friday, August 29, Kanopi—the modern Portuguese-inspired fine-dining spot perched 42 floors above White Plains, will trade its sweeping Hudson-to-Manhattan panoramas (well, most of them) for something a little more underground: Rare 1980s Keith Haring subway drawings.
The pop-up exhibition, HARINGS!, is a collaboration between Kanopi and Greenwich-based Trimper Gallery, transforming the restaurant into a gallery lounge and immersive listening room. Lining the walls will be Haring’s bold, black-and-white chalk drawings, originally scrawled on blank advertising spaces in New York’s subway stations, where millions could encounter them on their daily commute.

Chef Anthony Gonçalves, a James Beard Award semifinalist who grew up steeped in New York City nightlife, is pairing the visual art with a soundtrack worthy of a downtown club in its prime. The curated playlist runs while guests take in Haring’s kinetic, high-energy figures—proof that even in a white-tablecloth setting, his work retains every ounce of its street-level buzz.

Of course, it wouldn’t be Kanopi without food worth lingering over. The HARINGS! menu riffs on cosmopolitan indulgence: a towering seafood platter with oyster, lobster, tiger shrimp and hand-picked crab; a luxe Mishima Reserve wagyu katsu sando; sourdough flatbreads topped with anchovy, oregano-roasted yeast butter and lardo; and tempura in two directions—seasonal Hudson Valley vegetables or tiger shrimp in almond beer batter. Save room for desserts like playful Japanese milk ice cream sundaes with bourbon caramel and cookie crumble or fruit ice-pops in rotating flavors.
HARINGS! marks the third creative pairing between Kanopi and Trimper Gallery, following showcases of work by photographer Tyler Shields and painter Lincoln Townley. This time, Gonçalves says, the collaboration felt like a natural evolution, melding the restaurant’s refined intimacy with the raw pulse of 1980s New York.
For art lovers, it’s a chance to see original Haring works without trekking into the city (or fighting for elbow room in a packed museum). For diners, it’s proof that fine dining can be just as adventurous as a late-night gallery crawl. And for anyone nostalgic for the days when you could stumble on great art between subway stops, it’s a rare opportunity to sit with it, glass of vinho verde in hand.
