From Graffiti to Museum Galleries: The Art & Advocacy of Keith Haring

Jane Oneail will be presenting on Zoom as part of the Art Talk Series! See more info on the library’s website:

“This month's topic: Keith Haring's vibrant and iconic art captured the spirit of 1980s New York City, blending pop art, graffiti, and social activism. What made his bold, energetic figures and symbols so universally appealing? Haring's work, characterized by its simplicity and accessibility, addressed pressing issues including AIDS awareness. From subway stations to museums, Haring's art continues to inspire and provoke thought decades after his untimely death.”
