Keith Haring ( 1958 - 1990 ) was an incredibly vibrant American artist and social activist who's artwork responded to the 1980's Street culture by expressing concepts of birth, death, sexuality, and war. Haring's work was often heavily political, his imagery became a widely recognized vivid and iconic visual language of The 20th Century. Haring's close friends and inspirational contemporaries included Andy Warhol, Jean Michel Basquiat, and Madonna, all of whom he collaborated with in his lifetime.

Dance and music were a major influence on Keith Haring, and integral to his creative process. Collected in this book are forty of his most compelling images of dance in all its various expressions. With a simple, fluid line he created energetic dancing figures ranging from hip-hopping chickens to a ballerina in full arabesque. Matched with telling entries from his journal revealing his thoughts on life, dance, and most of all art, these works still communicate to us with great verve the joy of motion.
