Keith Haring was an American artist (1958–1990) who became a prominent figure in the 1980s New York art scene. Known for his 'pop' style, his work included large-scale murals, paintings, and 'subway drawings' created with chalk on the city's transit system. His art often featured bold lines and repeating figures, and he was a significant activist for the LGBTQ+ community and HIV/AIDS awareness. His influence remains substantial in contemporary street art and pop culture.[1]
