Keith Haring
Started drawing in chalk on unused advertising panels in the New York subway. He died of AIDS at thirty-one, having spent his last years making work about it.
Keith Allen Haring was an American artist and activist. His bold, graphic imagery has "become a widely recognized visual language". Emerging from New York City's downtown art and graffiti scenes in the early 1980s, he transformed subway chalk drawings into an internationally celebrated career that bridged street art and Pop art.
