KAWS(9 articles)

KAWS is a brooklyn-based artist whose work is highly charged, each conveying an underlying wit, irreverence, and affection for our times. he has primarily looked to and appropriated from pop-culture animations to form his artistic vocabulary for his paintings, drawings, and sculptures. now well known for his larger-than-life sculpture and hard-edge paintings that emphasize line and color, KAWS’s cast of hybrid cartoon/human characters, with similarities to popular cartoon figures and logos, are perhaps the strongest examples of his exploration of humanity.
