Keith Haring (1958–1990) was an American artist who became well known for his unique, bold style of pop art, which was heavily inspired by the New York street culture in the 1980s. His work was shown in several exhibitions throughout the 1980s and he achieved international popularity. Haring was also involved in social activism and used his work to promote AIDS awareness and safe sex practices. Sadly, Haring himself was diagnosed with HIV/AIDS in 1988 which ultimately led to his early death in 1990. Before he passed away, he helped to establish the Keith Haring Foundation, a non-profit organization dedicated to the education, research, and prevention of AIDS.
