Public art has an illustrious history that predates even the Renaissance. The evolution of this art form throughout history is truly remarkable, showcasing the transformative power of artistic expression. Keith Haring, the beloved New York artist, embraced this tradition in his own contemporary fashion, particularly with his iconic subway drawings.

Haring, though not exclusively categorised as a street artist, emerged when art in urban environments was gaining significant momentum. His innovative approach and belief in art's accessibility to all made him a true pioneer. His contributions to the world of public art have captivated audiences and continue to inspire with their vibrancy, inclusivity, and enduring legacy.

  5. Year-on-Year (YoY): a direct comparison between the latest year and the previous year.
