KEITH HARING: ART IS FOR EVERYBODY

Haring as activist and egalitarian:  a fresh, accessible and dynamic look at one of New York's most exhilarating artists.  Lavishly illustrated with essays and reflections by cultural leaders, this book surveys Haring's dynamic art practice from 1978 to 1990, shining a bright light on the iconic and beloved artist known for his fluid, uniform lines, intricate compositions and repeating imagery such as the barking dog and radiant baby.  Forty years after he came to prominence, Haring's art continues to garner worldwide recognition, breaking down barriers and spreading joy, while taking on complex issues that remain crucial today, from environmentalism, capitalism and the proliferation of new technologies to religion, sexuality, and race.
