Keith Haring spent little more than a decade in the spotlight, but in his singular blend of street art, graffiti, a Pop sensibility, and cartoon elements, he created stalwarts of modern pop culture as much as vivid social and political statements. From his first subway drawings through to his Pop Shop in SoHo, this concise introduction explores Haring's innovation and activism at the heart of the 1980s New York art scene.

Featuring an innovative foldout design that allows readers to view and read about the art simultaneously, a guide to thirty-three popular paintings, as selected by curators, includes commentary on each work and nearly three hundred photographs. 25,000 first printing.
