An energetic introduction to the work of iconic American visual and graffiti artist Keith Haring This vibrant book explores extraordinary artist Keith Haring’s work in the context of key issues of his lifetime—the AIDS crisis, the Cold War, racism, the excesses of capitalism, and environmental degradation. Widely recognized for his colorful paintings, drawings, sculptures, and murals, Haring (1958–1990) exploded onto the early 1980s New York art scene with his vivid graffiti-inspired drawings, many of which found exposure in public, such as the Times Square billboard “broadcast” of his famous Radiant Child in 1982. Featuring some 70 works supplemented by rarely seen photography and film stills, this accessible book not only introduces Haring to a new audience, but it also throws fresh light on an artist whose work remains emblematic of the subcultural and creative energy of 1980s New York.

A comprehensive take on haring's art, life and politics
This is a wonderfully written and exhaustively researched book which does a great job of marrying up the art to the times and the politics of a generation. The art is more relevant than it was and you see it more often than in the 80s and 90s but this book re-orientates us towards the art and what informed it. Haring is more important than ever . It is a joy to read and a joy, moreover, to view the many colour images.

Strong insightful essays and selection of his work
This is a must have for Haring fans. The essays are very well developed and focus on different aspects of his work. It is an intelligent set of interventions. What is more the selection of his art work is broad and very well displayed. This is an important catalogue.
