Before his untimely death from AIDS in 1990 aged just 31 years old, Haring was arguably the most accomplished and prominent American artist of the 1980s. However during his brief 10 year career he rewrote the rulebook for contemporary art, integrating the seemingly discrete arenas of New York City’s gritty downtown counterculture and uptown art aristocracy.
