This Keith Haring Buyer’s Guide provides the most up-to-date advice for acquiring Haring prints, known for their bold lines, social impact, and collectible value. From edition sizes to top-performing series, here’s what every buyer should know.
Why Collect Keith Haring?
Haring’s bold black-outlined figures and vibrant colours remain instantly recognisable. His themes of social justice, activism, and inclusivity resonate widely, with a market that spans both museum-grade pieces and accessible editions. From his early subway drawings to collaborations with brands and charities, Haring’s cultural reach continues to grow, making his work both meaningful and investable.
Starting a Keith Haring Collection
Haring’s early prints, such as the Bayer Suite (1982) and Ludo (1985), use traditional lithography and feature smaller edition sizes and muted palettes. While more accessible in price, they still reflect Haring’s distinctive linework.
His later screenprints – like the vibrant Fertility Suite (1983) – signal a shift to more ambitious compositions and larger editions. These works carry stronger market appeal due to their bright colours, energetic design, and connection to Haring’s Pop Shop ethos.
Three Keith Haring Prints Every Collector Should Know
1. Dog Cut-Out Prints: Produced in small edition sizes (10–15 per colour), Haring’s cut-out dog sculptures combine 2D and 3D formats – a rare crossover in his print practice. With several artist and trial proofs in circulation, these works are extremely limited. A black edition achieved £305,488 at Sotheby’s New York in May 2025, confirming strong demand.
2. Flowers Series: One of Haring’s rarest and most valuable series. A full set sold for £162,860 at Sotheby’s in May 2025 – the second-highest price achieved for the collection. Individual Flowers prints in red, yellow, and blue have set new records throughout 2025, reflecting increased collector appetite.
3. Fertility Suite: The complete Fertility Suite reached £203,200 in the September 2025 sales. Individual prints are also gaining momentum. Fertility 4 sold for £30,658 – not a record, but a strong result in today’s selective market. This series is known for both main and special edition variants.
Is Keith Haring A Good Investment?
Haring’s market remains robust, with consistent annual turnover exceeding £1 million. While 2025 has seen fewer complete sets sell than the previous year, their average value has increased significantly. Three standout results at Sotheby’s in May reflect growing collector appetite for complete portfolios:
- Growing (Trial Proofs) – $762,000 USD
- Fertility Suite – $317,500 USD (new auction record)
- Flowers – $215,900 USD
These results underscore the momentum behind complete sets, which have driven £1.4M in sales so far in 2025 – a strong indicator of value consolidation and top-end resilience in Haring’s print market.

How Much Are Keith Haring Prints Worth?
Haring’s prints range from entry-level works under £15,000 to six-figure icons. Between 2021 and 2025, the strongest value segment was works over £90,000, which made up 38% of total sales – including standout results like Growing (TP) and Andy Mouse (complete set).
Prints in the £50,000–£90,000 range (19%) include high-demand editions such as Apocalypse I (TP), which sold for £73,500 (hammer) in 2024, and Icons (1990), often fetching over £60,000. The £30,000–£50,000 bracket (14%) includes works like Fertility 4, which sold for £30,658 (hammer) in 2025, and various strong single prints from Best Buddies and Flowers.
Prints between £15,000–£30,000 (18%) include Pop Shop Quad III and individual Growing works – both popular with mid-tier collectors. Entry-level works under £15,000 (11%) include early Pop Shop prints and unsigned editions, offering strong visual impact at accessible price points.
Across all tiers, format, condition, and edition type remain key to valuation. The Haring market continues to offer depth and opportunity for buyers at every level.
How to authenticate your Keith Haring Print
Many Haring prints are hand-signed, while some – like Pop Shop quads – are signed by Julia Gruen of the Keith Haring Estate. Others, like Andy Mouse, feature dual signatures with Andy Warhol. Signature placement varies by series, so expert verification is key.
Look for provenance links to trusted publishers such as Tony Shafrazi, Michael Kohn, or Leo Castelli, and retain any gallery labels or invoices. For full guidance, see our Keith Haring Authentication Guide.
How to check the condition of a Keith Haring print
Condition is key to a Haring print’s value. Always inspect works unframed when possible – checking for warping, discolouration, or adhesive marks. If in doubt, seek professional advice before attempting restoration.
To preserve long-term value, invest in UV-protective framing and avoid direct sunlight or moisture. If storing, lay the print flat in a cool, dark space.
