In Radiant: The Life & Line of Keith Haring (2024), Brad Gooch presents a compelling account of Haring's life & work with a strong emphasis on the public artist & his positive/supportive relationship with young people via such public art. Not shying away from Haring's sometime difficult personal life, this well-judged & highly detailed (but never boring) bio will become the standard work on the artist. Really excellent!
First saw Keith Haring's art at the Ashmolean in Oxford a few years ago - a small temporary exhibition. His outline silhouette figures are to him as stick figures are to Lowry tho with that any comparison ends.
The big Tate Liverpool exhibition a couple of years ago was a fabulous exhibition... and while I've always liked Haring, it covered my wife from sceptics, to appreciation.
