Brooklyn-based artist Brian Donnelly, widely known as KAWS, enlists the seemingly incongruent techniques of pop art, toy-making, graffiti, product design, and sculpture to create a body of work that is at once universal and provocative, disconcerting and delightful. This book showcases the largest exhibition of KAWS' work to date. The exhibition featured a 22-foot-high, site-specific mural and a 24-foot-long triptych. In addition, the exhibition included three new major works including a grid of 27 round paintings, a group of KAWS toys, drawings, and a collaborative project with British Photographer David Sims.
