Keith Haring was an American artist whose pop-art, graffiti-like work grew out of th...e New York City street culture of the 1980s. Keith was commissioned by Playboy in 1986 shortly before his death in 1990. He created several pieces on silkscreen and any complete set of his work is highly valuable.
Some brief history: Keith Haring created several pieces for Playboy in the late 80s, but Playboy only had permission to print certain ones. Shortly after Haring's death in 1990, Playboy began creating prints of the unreleased works. Keith Haring's estate then sued Playboy for distributing these prints without permission. Playboy settled out of court with Haring's estate, and the existing prints still in circulation are highly valued collector's pieces.
