Keith Haring was one of the most renowned of the young artists,
filmmakers, and performers whose work was in conversation with urban
street culture of the 1980s. Inspired by the graffiti artists whose
marks covered the city’s subway cars, Haring began to draw in white
chalk over the black paper used to cover vacant advertising panels. As
early as 1980, Haring began exhibiting in galleries and museums around
the world, but continued to participate in public projects, producing
murals, sculptures and paintings to benefit hospitals, underprivileged
children's groups and various community health organizations. When
he opened his Pop Shop at 292 Lafayette Street, he thought of it as a
physical extension of his work, a place where everyone was welcome to
experience his art. He believed in using commercial projects like the
Pop Shop to reach people who would otherwise never come in contact with
his message, a legacy that lives on today in this box of pencils.
