Haring

The decade that made an icon. Haring is a concise introduction to Keith Haring — the artist who spent little more than ten years in the spotlight and reshaped pop culture in the process.

The book traces his singular blend of street art, graffiti, Pop sensibility, and cartoon elements, moving from his first subway drawings through to his legendary Pop Shop in SoHo. Haring's innovation and activism sat at the heart of the 1980s New York art scene — and the bold lines, dancing figures, and political urgency of his work remain as immediately recognizable, and as quietly radical, as the day they were made.

The artist who put art on the street.
