Keith Haring was an American artist whose pop & graffiti-like work grew out of the New York City street culture of the 1980s. His art is instantly recognizable for its simple childlike aesthetic and line-drawing style often made with very few colors. That universal quality that draws us to his work lead some to think that his art is easy to achieve but it isn’t. Haring believed, and his work shows us that that art should be something that liberates the soul, provokes the imagination and encourages people to go further.
