Drawing on walls : a story of Keith Haring

Matthew Burgess, Josh Cochran

Truly devoted to the idea of public art, Haring drew wherever he went: from the Berlin Wall to the unused advertising space in New York?s subway. Haring?s iconic pop art and graffiti-like style transformed the New York City underground art scene in the 1980s. A member of the LGBTQ community, Haring died tragically at the age of thirty-one from AIDS-related complications. This inspiring, celebratory book honors Haring?s life and art, along with his very special connection with kids. ?I would love to be a teacher because I love children and I think that not enough people respect children or understand how important they are.? ?Keith Haring.
