Keith Haring 1958 - 1990

Keith Allen Haring (4 May 1958 - 16 February 1990) was an American artist and social activist whose work responded to the New York City street culture of the 1980s by expressing concepts of birth, death, sexuality and war. Haring's work was often heavily political and his imagery has become a widely recognized visual language of the 20th century.
