“One day while riding the F train, Keith Haring discovered empty subway advertising spaces covered with black paper. Taking note of the soft matted quality of the paper, Haring instinctively concluded that white chalk would be the perfect medium for this surface. Not only was the chalk easy to conceal, but it also produced a crisp, tactile effect against the paper. In the early 80’s Haring created hundred of drawings in the new York City Subway system.”
