Multidisciplinary artist KAWS was first known for his work as a
graffiti artist and his subversive approach to popular imagery on
bus shelter and phone booth advertisements. This is the first
comprehensive survey of the artist's body of work.
Monica Ramirez-Montagut is a curator at The Aldrich Contemporary
Art Museum.
Germano Celant is an art historian and director of Fondazione Prada
in Milan.
"With a monograph from Skira Rizzoli due out this fall and the
Aldrich show at his doorstep KAWS has gotten approval from an art
world establishment that he felt would never take his guerrilla act
as its own" ~Interview
“The first publication dedicated to the full range of work by
subculture hero KAWS, this amazing eponymous monograph highlights a
superstar from a new generation of pop artists.” ~Flavorwire
"Rizzoli has amounted a series of very strong titles on and by
people from our culture in the last couple of years...today we
learned that a book entirely concentrating on the life and career
of New York artist Kaws will also be released."
~HighSnobiety.com
"One of the most impressive art book publishers of the moment is
New York’s Rizzoli, recent releases have included the Maison Martin
Margiela, A-Ron’s Supreme book, Kanye’s “Glow In The Dark” and
more, but their latest releases is perhaps the most exciting yet… a
retrospective of the career of Kaws." ~SlamHype.com
