Dessinateur compulsif,Keith Haring,est un personnage généreux, qui a voué sa création à des causes telles que la lutte contre le racisme, le sexisme et l’homophobie, pour l’écologie et le pacifisme et, bien entendu en tant que personne concernée, au combat contre l’épidémie du VIH. Et quel artiste !
