Keith Haring
Keith Haring is of course one of the leading lights of pop art in the 1980’s, paving the way for the street art revolution of the 1990’s.
His friends and mentors included Basquiat and Warhol, Madonna and Yoko Ono and his work reflects the dominant culture of the era. Waring’s career was incandescent yet cut short, he died of AIDS related illnesses in 1990.
This piece comes from his Tokyo exhibition in 1983, it is one of only a thousand and it is printed on a fabulous pearlescent paper.
