outlines and a cartoon-like style.

Fact File
Born:
Family: He had three younger sisters
and his parents were Joan and Allen Haring.
Education: He attended Kutztown Area Senior High
School and then the Ivy School of Professional Art in
Pittsburgh but he never finished his course there. He
went to both Pittsburgh Centre for the Arts and School
of Visual Arts in New York City.
Jobs: He worked at Pittsburgh Centre for the Arts in
maintenance while he was concentrating on his own
artwork. He later became a full-time artist.
4th May 1958 in Reading,
Pennsylvania, USA
16th February 1990 (aged 31),
New York City, USA
Died:
New YorkIn 1978, he arrived in New York where
his interest in graffiti art grew while he
studied at School of Visual Arts in the
city.
New York was a vibrant and energetic
city at this time and an exciting place to
be.
Haring was blown away by the graffiti
art and saw blank, black areas of space
on the subway where he started to
make his own, signed, graffiti art.
Graffiti can, of course, be vandalism
when permission has not been
granted and he was arrested a
number of times for committing crime.

Haring’s
subway work
is now in a
museum.
The Rest of the World
In the 1980s, Haring was becoming noticed further afield
and he travelled to other countries painting murals.
He painted murals in Australia, Rio De Janeiro and Paris.
He was even asked to paint part of the Berlin Wall in Germany near to
checkpoint Charlie (the gate between East and West Germany
when it was split).

Pop ShopIn 1986, Haring opened his own art
shops in New York City and Tokyo
selling his graffiti artwork and also some
Pop Art pieces. And yes… he had
covered the inside of the shop in murals!
The original shops are now closed
(Tokyo closed in 1988 and the
New York branch much more
recently in 2005).
Pop shop merchandise is still
available online from the Keith
Haring foundation.
He said, “The Pop Shop makes my
work accessible. It’s about
participation on a big level.”

ActivismDuring his lifetime, Keith Haring did a lot of work for the benefit of
children, especially those in disadvantaged areas and also work on education on HIV and Aids. He also provided the artwork for campaigns.
In 1989, he set up the
Keith Haring
foundation so that after
his death, this
important work could
continue which it still
does today.

Have a GoKeith Haring was passionate about taking art to the people (all
people of all levels) rather than keeping it in galleries.
Why not have a go at
creating your own
artwork in the style of
Keith Haring?
Bold colours, cartoon
people shapes, black
outlines and some
movement lines.
