Keith Haring

Keith Haring                                   

Main Website: www.haring.com

Subject Matter: graffiti-inspired drawings on racism, gay rights and other social/political subjects. 


Elements of Art: shape, line, color


Principles of Design: balance, contrast, emphasis, movement


Mood: relaxed, simplistic, powerful


Artwork is about... reflecting urban America during the 1980's and the Pop Art culture movement.


Worth sharing because... it inspires many young and aspiring artist to trust their abilities in implementing their art in greater scales rather than the standardized ones. It encourages artist to speak their minds through pictures. After all, a picture IS worth a thousand words...

"I don't think art is propaganda; it should be something that liberates the soul, provokes the imagination and encourages people to go further. It celebrates humanity instead of manipulating it."
