Description

Revolutionary and renegade, Keith Haring created an instantly recognisable repertoire of symbols – barking dogs, space-ships, crawling babies, clambering faceless people – which became synonymous with the volatile culture of the 1980s. Famous at 25, dead from AIDS at 31, Haring is remembered as an unpretentious communicator who appeared happiest when mentoring a gang of kids, arming them with brushes and attacking the nearest wall.

This book focuses on the life of the artist but also includes key images from his body of work.
