Keith Haring
Keith Haring was one of the most renowned of the young artists, filmmakers, and performers whose work responded to urban street culture of the 1980s.
He was known for his iconic line work which continues to inspire street muralists and pop artists alike, and was featured in more than 100 exhibitions during his life. Keith believed art should be readily accessible to the public, coining the phrase "Art is for everybody."
AKILA has created a collection of eyewear that pays tribute to his distinct style and celebrates his legacy of making great designs available to all.
