What Party Figure - Pink
- 29 x 14 x 9 cm
- Sculptuur in oplage
- Acryl- en olieverf op koeienhuid op linnen
This pink figure is a return of one of the most treasured KAWS vinyl figures: the Chum character, which originally debuted in 2002. Here the character is showed bent over in a saddened state.
Available in five colors: pink, yellow, orange, black and white.
The Chum Character comes in its original boxing.
KAWS is one of the most prominent and prolific artists of the new pop art generation. That is why we proudly present the collection of KAWS figures.
Over the past two decades, KAWS' Companion has quickly established its reputation as a must-have collectible. What started as a limited edition eight inch toy is now an undeniable mainstay in the art industry and beyond.
KAWS is the pseudonym of Brian Donnelly, American designer and graffiti artist. He placed the four letters under his 'tags' in the streets of New York. In the 1990s he attended the School of Visual Arts in New York and worked as an illustrator at Disney. At night he was a graffiti artist and made parodies of existing advertisements on bus shelters, telephone booths and billboards.
He made his first three-dimensional vinyl toy in 1999. This Companion, with a round belly and white gloves, became an indispensable piece of jewelry among streetwear enthusiasts. Characters like Chum, Bendy and Blitz, and renditions of iconic cartoons like Pinoccio, Snoopy and Tweety followed. Hello Kitty was also present.
Often his sculptures, which came on the market in certain editions, were sold out within a few intervals. This, among other things, to a crashed site of the Museum of Modern Art. The toy line expanded rapidly; not only in number and color, but also in style, size and partnerships such as Dior, Louis Vuitton and Kanye West.
KAWS does the lines between art and commercial activities and therefore good parallels are drawn with Andy Warhol. The prices of his objects vary widely: from fifteen dollars for a key ring to more than fourteen million for a painting.
