Distinctive, offbeat, and unfazed by societal rules or norms, famed artist Keith Haring made a lasting imprint on the ‘80s art scene with his graphic graffiti style that could be seen sprawled across every crevice of New York City. Haring’s art was full of optimism, loud bursts of color, and bold graphic lines, fast-tracking his career and making him a member of the underground art circuit where fashion, art, and music collided.
British creative director of Coach, Stuart Vevers, is delving into the mind of Haring for the brand’s Spring 2018 campaign by riffing the iconic artist’s squiggles and showing how one can master the art of dressing in painterly prints or abstract accessories that can unleash your inner artist.
