(**) Keith Haring was born in 1958 in Reading, Pennsylvania, United States. He grew up in Kutztown and from a young age showed a strong interest in art. He studied graphic design at The Ivy School of Professional Art in Pittsburgh, and at 19, having already publicly identified as gay, he moved to New York, where he found inspiration in graffiti art and enrolled at the School of Visual Arts, receiving the influence of Keith Sonnler and Joseph Kossuth, who encouraged him to train as a conceptual artist after experimenting with form and color. Haring caught the public’s attention in 1980 when he began drawing cartoon-like images with markers on New York subways, and later painted with white chalks comic strips on black panels used for advertising, which earned him more than one arrest. His clean lines, vivid colors, and active figures carried strong messages about life and unity, and his exhibitions were filmed by photographer Tseng Kwong Chi. Also around this time, he organized an exhibition at Club 57, and participated in a show in Times Square, where he first drew animals and human faces. His first solo exhibition was at Tony Shafrazi Gallery in 1981, the same year he participated in the Documenta 7 exhibition in Kassel, Germany. In 1982 he befriended emerging artists of the time such as Kenny Scharf, Madonna, and Jean-Michel Basquiat, and even met the famous Andy Warhol. In 1984 Haring went to Australia and painted several murals in Melbourne and Sydney, and even received money for his work from the National Gallery of Victoria and the Australian Centre for Contemporary Art. He also visited and painted in Rio de Janeiro, the Centre Pompidou in Paris, Minneapolis, and Manhattan. During this period he even designed a pink jacket that Madonna wore to interpret her song “Like a Virgin” on the show “Solid Gold.” In 1985, the Museum of Modern Art in Bordeaux held an exhibition of his work, and he also took part in the Paris Biennale. He appeared in November of that year on MTV, where he painted on a show hosted by his friend Nick Rhodes of Duran Duran. In 1986 he painted murals in Amsterdam, Paris, Phoenix, and Berlin, and also painted Grace Jones’s body for her music video of the song “I’m Not Perfect,” and opened a shop to sell his works in SOHO. By then, his works began to reflect the socio-political problems of the era, such as anti-apartheid, AIDS, and drugs. He also created pop art pieces for brands such as Absolut Vodka, Lucky Strike, and Coca-Cola, and even designed the cover of the charity album “A Very Special Christmas,” on which his friend Madonna was included. In 1988 he was included on a select list of artists whose works appeared on Chateau Mouton Rothschild wine labels, and that same year he was diagnosed with AIDS, which led him to establish the Keith Haring Foundation the following year, aimed at fighting the social problems related to this disease and publicizing the artist’s work through exhibitions, publications, and licenses. In June 1989 he painted his last public work on a wall of the Monastery of San Antonio in Pisa. This work was titled “Tuttomondo.” Keith Haring died on February 16, 1990, at the early age of 32 from AIDS.
