Penguin Classics On Air: From Graffiti Art to Galleries, From Hip Hop to “Hope”

Keith Haring, a Radiant Classic

What’s classic about the 80s? The art of Keith Haring. Twenty years after his death, Keith Haring’s Journals debuts in Penguin Classics and features ninety new and updated black and white images and a foreword by artist Shepard Fairey. Jeffrey Deitch, Fab 5 Freddy, Julia Gruen and Shepard Fairey guide us through Keith Haring’s world—from the galleries to graffiti art, and from the causes he championed to the socio-political art that inspires the next generation of artists.
