Each month includes paintings as well as drawings and street art. One of the most popular artists of his time, Keith Haring's devotion to developing a truly public art would take his work from the canvas of New York City+s streets and subways to murals all over the world. A part of the proceeds of any licensing of Haring imagery goes to the Keith Haring Foundation whose mandate is to provide funding and imagery to AIDS organizations and children+s programs.

 Rating: - A bargain!I know a bargain when I see one. Sussman's book juxtaposes Keith's drawings and paintings alongside interviews with Keith's contemporaries (they even bring in Junior Vasquez), without any attempt at being complete. The price is lowered because of a black Sharpie line on the top of the pages. That's it! If you have any interest in Keith Haring or even art in general, this is a great way to look at a great artist.

Rating: - Love Keith? Love this book!This is a book I picked up at the Whitney exhibit in 1997 - it's a great variety of all Keith's work. His style has varied over the years and this book does a great job showing his evolution. My favorite part is the fact that many of his pieces from his youngest years are included. It's always interesting to see where your favorite artist started.
