About
Beloved hero of the fashion and music industries, KAWS is one of a handful of artists to successfully bridge the gap between fine art and mass production. Starting his career as a background painter for Disney, his assured understanding of the commercial art world led to the release of the highly-collectable KAWS Companion figures in the late 1990s. Alongside his work on the streets, which often included customised bus shelter adverts, these enabled him to build a monumental cult following.
