  • KAWS Media Release
    KAWS Media release 6 February–12 June 2016 Longside Gallery and open air Yorkshire Sculpture Park (YSP) presents the first UK museum exhibition by KAWS, the renowned American artist, whose practice includes painting, sculpture, printmaking and design. The exhibition, in the expansive Longside Gallery and open air, features over 20 works: commanding sculptures in bronze, fibreglass, aluminium and wood alongside large, bright canvases immaculately rendered in acrylic paint – some created especially for the exhibition. The Park’s historically designed landscape becomes home to a series of monumental and imposing sculptures, including a new six-metre-tall work, which take KAWS’s idiosyncratic form of almost-recognisable characters in the process of growing up. Brooklyn-based KAWS is considered one of the most relevant artists of his generation. His influential work engages people across the generations with contemporary art and especially opens popular culture to young and diverse audiences. A dynamic cultural force across art, music and fashion, KAWS’s work possesses a wry humour with a singular vernacular marked by bold gestures and fastidious production. In the 1990s, KAWS conceived the soft skull with crossbones and crossed-out eyes which would become his signature iconography, subverting and abstracting cartoon figures. He stands within an art historical trajectory that includes artists such as Claes Oldenburg and Jeff Koons, developing a practice that merges fine art and merchandising with a desire to communicate within the public realm. Initially through collaborations with global brands, and then in his own right, KAWS has moved beyond the sphere of the art market to occupy a unique position of international appeal.

KAWS s’est fait connaître par ses interventions impromptues sur les affiches publicitaires des abribus ou des cabines téléphoniques dans les rues de New York entre 1996 et 2000. Ses motifs, Skully - un crâne de pirate aux yeux en forme de croix - ou Bendy - un corps de spermatozoïde surmonté d’une tête de pirate - s’infiltraient minutieusement dans les panneaux d’affichage en se fondant habilement dans chaque mise en scène. A partir de 1999, il développe d’autres personnages dont le fameux Companion (tête de pirate sur un corps de Mickey, il a d’ailleurs collaboré quelques temps avec Disney) qu’il édite en art toy via la société japonaise Bounty Hunter. Dès lors, il multiplie les collaborations avec le monde de la mode (Marc Jacobs, BAPE, Comme des Garçons, Colette ...), la presse (de nombreuses couvertures de magazines sont volontairement ‘disrupted’, du New York magazine à Jalouse), la musique (Pharrell Williams, Kanye West).

  • February 21, 2009 Over the Course of a Career That Has
    February 21, 2009 Over the course of a career that has variously infuriated anti-graffiti task force officers and enthralled Japanese street couture collectors -- meaning winning props from hip-hop superstars Kanye West and Pharrell Williams -- the pop artist KAWS has carved a unique niche for himself. The soft-spoken 34-year-old Jersey City native, born Brian Donnelly, created a new business model that bridges the high-low culture divide in ways that would have made steam come out of Andy Warhol's ears. By parlaying vandalism into a brand identity as a purveyor of mass- produced collectible toys, KAWS became a bona fide subculture celebrity with a recognizable presence in street fashion. But now, KAWS is at a career turning point. In spite of his renown in subcultural circles (which galleristas and museum directors have historically snobbed), he is now being mentioned in the same breath as pop art luminaries, such as Takashi Murakami, Keith Haring and Jeff Koons. And while KAWS has proven himself perfectly capable of trafficking his own pop offerings -- on skateboard decks, stickers, T-shirts and sneakers -- KAWS has infiltrated the rarefied world of institutional art after being held at arm's distance from it for much of his career. Pretty fly for a graf guy. "When I grew up, I never thought I could enter a gallery," KAWS said over lunch at Chateau Marmont this week. "I looked at them as these pretentious places that did not welcome me." On the heels of two exhibitions of his work at the Gering & Lopez Gallery in New York and Galerie Emmanuel Perrotin in Miami last year, an exhibition of KAWS' paintings and sculptures is set to open at Honor Fraser Gallery in Culver City tonight.

    KAWS Media release OPEn-AIR KAWS SCULPTURES TO REMAIN AT YORksHIRE SCULPTURE PARK Yorkshire Sculpture Park (YSP) is pleased to announce that six sculptures by the renowned American artist KAWS will remain on display until December 2016 giving visitors to the Park a further six months to enjoy the monumental works in the open air. Following the success of the artist’s first UK museum exhibition in YSP’s Longside Gallery and the open air, the six sculptures – SMALL LIE (2013), GOOD INTENTIONS (2015), AT THIS TIME (2013), BETTER KNOWING (2013), FINAL DAYS (2013) and ALONG THE WAY (2013) – will continue to be seen in the Lower Park, beyond the exhibition’s official end date of 12 June 2016. Outdoors, with their outsize and monumental proportions, KAWS’s sculptures bring to mind dystopian cartoon characters; recognisable personalities from childhood who appear to have lost their innocence. Against the Park’s tree line, the group of six works in natural and black-stained wood, measuring between three and 10 metres in height, are simultaneously spectacular and plaintive. Once bright, iconic characters are rendered in disheartened, world-weary Images, left to right: poses; imposing yet full of pathos, they point to an array of psychological SMALL LIE (2013) courtesy the artist, narratives, suggesting compassion, surprise and despair.

  • Many Art Careers Are Made from the Top Down: a Museum Show Typically Provides the Seal of Approval That Propels a Young Artist to Success in the Commercial World
    By Ted Loos May 15, 2019 Many art careers are made from the top down: A museum show typically provides the seal of approval that propels a young artist to success in the commercial world. But KAWS — the nom-d’art of Brian Donnelly — took another direction. He became a popular juggernaut thanks to the simple, graphic and recognizable characters he invented — like “Companion,” his version of Mickey Mouse — that riff on famous cartoon figures and have XXs for eyes. First he sketched them, then he inserted them, illegally, into the sides of phone booths, and soon they became the staples of toys, T-shirts and commercial collaboration of all stripes, giving him 1.9 million followers on Instagram. Mr. Donnelly had a streetwear store in Tokyo, OriginalFake (2006-13), before he ever had a solo museum show. Only in the last few years has his renown translated into institutional recognition, but it will be 2021 before he finally has his first New York star turn in a survey at the Brooklyn Museum. He’s already earning big auction prices, however, like the $14.8 million paid at Sotheby’s Hong Kong in March for his painting “The KAWS Album” (2005), a mash-up of “The Simpsons” and the cover of “Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band.” It was a record for his work — almost 20 times the low estimate — and it stopped many experts in their tracks. “My trajectory has been from the bottom up,” the 44-year-old artist said last month, sitting in his well- appointed Williamsburg studio, one of two he operates in Brooklyn.

  • Resource Pack INTRODUCTION
    Resource Pack INTRODUCTION KAWS found his way into graffiti through his love of skateboarding as a teenager, often making the short journey into Manhattan from Jersey City. Through graffiti, he put his tag on walls across New York City and began using the pseudonym ‘KAWS’ simply because he liked the way the formations of the letters worked together. After graduating from high school in 1992 he started using billboards and other public advertisements as canvases for his paintings. He began unlocking glass panel covered advertisements to add his own paintings in the studio and replace them in their cases. He used acrylic paint applied with no visible brush strokes, often making it seem like his additions were a part of the original ad. He later said that this wasn’t an attack on advertisers or a rebellion against their campaigns, but more that he chose adverts based on what he was visually attracted to. In 1997 KAWS first visited Japan, somewhere he had always had an interest in and was inspired by the products people in Japan were creating. Also inspired by Pop artists such as Claes Oldenburg and Tom Wesselmann, he began to make editions. KAWS saw creating toys as a way into the world of sculpture, a more conceivable and feasible way to produce his ideas in 3D form. The sculptures he eventually went on to create replicate the look and feel of his toys. He made his first toy, COMPANION in 1999 with Japanese company Bounty Hunter. In 2001 the founder of ‘*A Bathing Ape’ Nigo asked KAWS to collaborate with him on a clothing line.

  • Interview: KAWS November 2013 by Scott Indrisek
    Interview: KAWS November 2013 By Scott Indrisek KAWS (A.K .A. BRIAN DONNELLY) occupies a unique position in the contemporary art world. He shows his paintings and sculptures at heavy hitters like Galerie Perrotin yet still designs and sells collectible toys through his company, OriginalFake; this year he also reimagined the MTV Music Awards statuette and contributed the sculptural scenography for the event at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn (the backdrop for Miley Cyrus's news- hogging twerk-out). This month KAWS has a slew of concurrent exhibitions: "Pass the Blame," at Galerie Perrotin's New York location; two enormous sculptures farther downtown at Mary Boone Gallery: a survey at the Nerman Museum of Contemporary Art in Kansas; and a unique outing at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts. Modern Painters executive editor Scott Indrisek spoke with the artist in his brand-new studio in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. Scott Indrisek: What will you show at Galerie Perrotin? KAWS: I plan to have all shaped canvases, graphic shapes that may or may not recall familiar imagery. To make the paintings, I make drawings and then redraw them on the computer, using Adobe Illustrator, in different layers. Then we print these out, project them, and make color charts. With Illustrator I can Frankenstein all these images together and experiment with many compositions. For Perrotin, I'm also working on flat sculptures: freestanding and made of high quality plastics that are typically used for eyeglasses. SI: For those you’re using a Belgian fabricator. What’s the production process like? K: Works like these have never been made.

  • Artprice by Artmarket Presents the Top 25 Street Artists: Banksy's Success
    Artprice by ArtMarket presents the Top 25 Street Artists: Banksy’s success in not a market anomaly With a new auction record of $12.2 million hammered at the beginning of October, street artist Banksy definitely stands out on the Art Market. But don’t forget that earlier this year, in April, Kaws – another artist from the graffiti scene – reached a new record of $14.8 million in Hong Kong. And what about Jean-Michel Basquiat and Keith Haring? Despite Banksy’s incognito status, Street Art is no longer an anonymous art form; who hasn’t heard of Sherpard Fairey (Obey) or Invaders? Who doesn’t know Stik’s little men? From the Berlin Wall to Wynwood (Miami), Street Art is not only tolerated by local authorities, it has become an attraction and even a ‘must-see’ for tourists. For the Art Market, the street has become a kind of hothouse incubator. thierry Ehrmann, founder /CEO of ArtMarket.com and its Artprice department: “Long considered an illegal practice, Street Art has become the height of luxury and is now collected by movie stars : Brad Pitt, Pharrell Williams, Leonardo DiCaprio. Basquiat sometimes repainted the walls of his friends' apartments… Who would complain about that today? It’s in the nature of man – and especially of political authorities – to complain first, and then, after observing the reactions of amateurs and professionals to finally accept. The Art Market is usually well ahead of public recognition. There’s an obvious parallel with the history of the Abode of Chaos, ArtMarket.com’s head office, which is following a similar path.

    PRESSBOOK KAWS Hong-Kong Tatler April 2018 1/1 18/04/2018 KAWS: From Graffiti To Galerie Perrotin | Hong Kong Tatler KAWS: From Graffiti To Galerie Perrotin hk.asiatatler.com/life/kaws‑from‑graffiti‑to‑galerie‑perrotin April 17, 2018 Arts April 17, 2018 | BY Coco Marett When he was doing graffiti in the streets of New York, Brian Connelly—or KAWS—never thought that his works would one day be on the walls of some of the world's leading fine art galleries You might know him as the artist whose works are collected by the likes of Pharrell Williams, and you're probably familiar with the vinyl figurines of his instantly recognisable "Companion" characters. There's no question that KAWS, real name Brian Connelly, is one of the most relevant and important artists of his generation. But how much do we really know about the New York‑ based artist? At the opening of his solo exhibition at Perrotin in Hong Kong, we sat down with KAWS to talk about how public art can transform communities and why making art more accessible to all is the key to making the world feel a little cosier. On growing up with graffiti… Back when I was doing graffiti, it seemed shocking that you could even have a career as an artist. I imagined I would end up doing a job in the arts, like graphic design, just something that would subsidise my interest in what I was doing in the streets. Honestly, what I do now isn’t much of a departure from the street art and graffiti I was doing.
