Work of iconic artist Keith Haring makes splash at Akron Art Museum

When artist Keith Haring created chalk drawings in New York subway stations early in his career in the 1980s, he never signed them. Even so, New Yorkers quickly recognized his distinctive style.

Haring saw artmaking as a communal activity, a performance that he wanted crowds to watch. Today, millions of people around the world instantly recognize Haring's iconic figures, including outlines of dancing figures, barking dogs and crawling babies.
