There are few artists who have been as influential as Keith Haring, especially in New York City. The iconic artist produced hundreds of public works that often conveyed social messages and political statements. It doesn't hurt that he was also friends with Madonna and Jean-Michel Basquiat.
A new app titled"Keith Haring: The Politics of Dancing" has just been released, giving users an inside look at the late artist's life and work. Developed by Art Intelligence, the app displays many of his works and gives historical context. Learn about the artist's involvement with important social issues such as the AIDS crisis, the fall of the Berlin Wall, New York’s club scene, and so much more. The app is basically like having a portable retrospective.
To celebrate the new app, we are giving away a skateboard toting Haring's signature visual language. That's where you come in. Here's how you can win:
