Keith Haring’s Pop Shops were born out of the artist’s desire to make his whimsical aesthetic accessible to the widest audience possible. “I wanted it to be a place where, yes, not only
collectors could come, but also kids from the Bronx,” Haring said of the Pop Shops.
The street artist opened two Pop Shops—one in Manhattan in 1986 and another in Tokyo in 1987—where art, clothes, posters, other ephemera, and drawings by peers like Jean-Michel Basquiat could be
purchased at affordable prices. Haring painted floor to ceiling murals at both boutiques, creating an
immersive environment for visitors to browse and enjoy his beloved art.
Today, Haring enthusiasts make the pilgrimage to see the original New York Pop Shop ceiling installed in the entryway of the New York Historical Society.
