The book jacket says:

Haring’s instantly recognizable repertoire of symbols—barking dogs, space-ships, crawling babies, clambering faceless people—were synonymous with the volatile culture of 1980s. Like a careening, preening pinball, Keith Haring playfully slammed into all aspects of this decade: hip-hop, new-wave, graffiti, funk, art, style and LGBT culture, and brought them together.

Simon says:

“Keith Haring said the people were not getting the art they deserve. He wanted to change that, and did. I think that’s why he’s endured.”
