Keith Haring was influenced heavily by LA2's graffiti, and many of LA2's
works are mistaken for Keith Haring's. Within the past two years, a
collaboration Haring / LA2 of an Egyptian mummy sculpture traded at
auction for $80,000.
LA2 was discovered by Keith Haring in the early
1980s and became his close friend and collaborator. They traveled the world
together, painting murals and sculptures.
LA2 and Keith Haring recently had
an exhibition at Jeffrey Deitch in New York City, which is now
traveling internationally.
