At that time Haring was a street artist in his twenties, and not only very much contributed to the rebirth of the New York art scene in the early Eighties, but nearly single-handedly saw to the canonizing of graffiti as a legitimate artistic practice. Much of Haring\u0026rsquo;s work make use of the simple and extremely communicative power that radiates from many graffiti-paintings, but without then neglecting heavy, classical themes such as life, death and love. By initially carrying out his work in the public space, he dodges traditional art institutions like museums and galleries, which he was suspicious of. Later on in his career, as well, when he indeed became part of the art \u0026lsquo;circuit\u0026rsquo;, he continued to raise the banner for art\u0026rsquo;s accessibility. In 1986 Haring opened the first of his POP-SHOPS, stores where cheap, reproducible products with images of his art works were on sale. \u0026lsquo;High\u0026rsquo; and \u0026lsquo;low\u0026rsquo; cultures come together.

Haring stond destijds als twintigjarige straatkunstenaar niet alleen aan de wieg van de heropleving van de New Yorkse kunstsc\u0026egrave;ne in de vroege jaren tachtig, maar realiseerde bijna eigenhandig de canonisering van graffiti tot een legitieme artistieke praktijk. Veel van Harings werken maken gebruik van de eenvoud en communicatieve kracht die van veel graffiti-schilderingen afgaat, zonder zware, klassieke thema\u0026#39;s als het leven, de dood en de liefde uit de weg te gaan. Door zijn werken aanvankelijk in de openbare ruimte te verwezenlijken, ontweek hij de traditionele kunstinstituties zoals musea en galeries, waar hij wantrouwig tegenover stond. Ook toen hij later in zijn carri\u0026egrave;re deel uit begon te maken van het kunstcircuit, bleef hij toegankelijkheid hoog in het vaandel houden. In 1986 opende Haring de eerste van zijn POP-SHOPS, winkels waar goedkope, reproduceerbare producten met afbeeldingen van zijn kunstwerken verkocht werden. \u0026#39;Hoge\u0026#39; en \u0026#39;lage\u0026#39; cultuur komen samen.
