Messages of Hope in Art: Keith Haring, World, 1984

I remember the first time I saw a Keith Haring painting. I was in Tate Liverpool and I will never forget how Haring told stories of the Aids crisis, his sexuality, and political oppression through his work in graphics and thick black lines. That to me is a kind of message of hope in itself, simple graphics in bright oranges, aqua blue, pinks and yellow uncovering far from simple emotions.
