About KAWS
Born Brian Donnelly, in 1974, in Jersey City, New Jersey, KAWS started out as a graffiti artist, tagging up bus shelters and billboards across New York City, starting in the mid-1990s. In true graffiti artist form, his endeavors on advertising posters helped establish KAWS outside graffiti, getting his style noticed as an emergent street artist. From this point, KAWS turned away from graffiti and into fine art, bringing the dimensions of cartoon imagery, consumerist culture, and design into fine arts. KAWS creates works across painting, screenprints, toys, and large-scale installations and sculpture. His approach provides lots of access to the public while still receiving critical acclaim.
