KAWS: WHAT PARTY

Choose from four different covers, each produced in a limited edition. Drawing from Pop art traditions, KAWS’s work straddles the line between fine art and popular culture, crossing the mediums of painting and sculpture, along with fashion, merchandise, vinyl toys, and, most recently, augmented reality. KAWS What Party, made in close collaboration with the artist, features his most well-known works alongside sketches, preparatory drawings, and never-before-seen images of KAWS at work, revealing the meticulous process behind his iconic artworks. Accompanying a major retrospective exhibition in New York, it captures the artist’s unique ability to reshape the ways we think about contemporary art and culture today. Essays by Eugenie Tsai and Daniel Birnbaum. 256pp, 150 color illustrations.
