This comprehensive monograph in contemporary art documents the career of KAWS, a leading figure whose work bridges fine art, street culture, and commercial design. It presents over 1,500 illustrations spanning painting, sculpture, fashion, vinyl toys, and augmented reality, revealing the artist’s meticulous process and signature visual language. The book argues that KAWS redefines authorship and cultural commentary by appropriating and transforming familiar icons into emotionally resonant forms. Essays by Daniel Birnbaum and Eugenie Tsai illustrate how his practice challenges traditional boundaries between high and low art, positioning him as a central force in global visual culture. Published in conjunction with a major Brooklyn Museum retrospective, this volume stands as an essential reference for collectors, curators, and scholars of 21st-century art.
