Keith Haring is widely considered one of the most influential artists of the 20th century and the exhibition at Tate Liverpool is the first major UK retrospective of his work. Heavily inspired by graffiti, pop art and underground club culture, Haring collaborated with like minded souls throughout his life, including Andy Warhol and Jean-Michel Basquiat.

He also designed record covers for RUN DMC and David Bowie, directed a music video for Grace Jones and developed a fashion line with Malcolm McLaren and Vivienne Westwood.
