KAWS is the reason why some of us kept trudging along in the graffiti world. In 1995, I, along with a few others, picked up the whole, “lets open up some bus poster shelters and steal the posters and then replace them with our artwork on top of the poster” technique. It’s awesome to see how far he has gone.
This segment profiles the artist known as KAWS, former Graffiti (tag) artist turned painter and designer of limited edition toys and clothing. This segment also features some cool clips of KAWS’ art, displayed in Pharrell Williams’ Miami Home and Kanye West’s latest album cover and billboard.
You can catch his next exhibition,
“KAWS, The Long Way Home,” February 21,— April 04, 2009 at the Honor Fraser Gallery in LA
