Keith Haring gained fame during the 1980s for his graffiti art, stylized contour line paintings of people and dogs, which he spray-painted on billboards in New York City's subways. Haring's most familiar image was his "Radiant Child," a glowing baby on all fours. Haring, born in 1958, died in 1990 of complications from AIDS.

In the late 1970s, Jean-Michel Basquait lived with Alexis Adler in the East Village. At this time he was still “writing” on and off the streets as SAMO©, beginning to earn himself recognition as a noteworthy artist. Be sure to see Life with Basquiat, an installation of Adler's intimate photographs of Brooklyn’s own Radiant Child—on view in the @caribbeing house, all month long @brooklynmuseum.
