Description

An iconic figure in KAWS' work, the companion has appeared in many different iterations and on several different mediums throughout the years. After demand increased, KAWS released a full series of six different companions that included both full body and flayed versions of the classic character. The collection dropped in November, 2016 in conjunction with his "Where The End Starts" exhibit in Fort Worth, Texas. The figures were released through KAWSONE, MoMA, and the Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth and stand at 11 inches tall. Collectors scooped these companions up quickly, despite this being KAWS most widely released figures in years. This KAWS Open Edition Companion in Brown features a full-body with tones of beige, brown, and white throughout, and comes sealed in clear blister packaging.

Kaws

Kaws

Kaws is a multi-faceted artist straddling the worlds of art and design in his prolific body of work that ranges from paintings, murals, and large-scale sculptures to product design and toy-making. His iconic “XX” signature has its roots in the beginning of his career as a street artist in the 1990s, when he began altering found advertisements by incorporating his own masterful paintings. Evoking the sensibilities of Pop artists like Andy Warhol and Claes Oldenburg, KAWS possesses a sophisticated humor and thoughtful interplay with consumer products and collaborations with global brands. He often draws inspiration and appropriates from popular culture animations to form a unique artistic vocabulary and influential cast of hybrid cartoon and human characters. Some of his characters are his own creations while others are reworked versions of existing icons. His sculptures range in size from a few inches to ten meters tall, and are made from various materials including fiberglass, aluminum, wood, bronze, and a steel pontoon inflatable raft. He is well recognized internationally for his cross-market appeal and ability to blur lines between commercial and fine art, creating sculptures, acrylic paintings on canvas, and screen prints while also collaborating commercially, predominantly on limited edition toys, but also clothing, skateboard decks, and other collectibles.
