  • KAWS被視作與社會上同齡人聯繫最緊密、最傑出的藝術家。縱觀KAWS的創作,他打破傳統高等美術與商業文化之間的藩籬,開創了藝術領域新的可能,就如同他自己所說「1990年代,普遍認為商業藝術與美術是兩個迥然不同的道路,藝術家必須要從中擇一。但現在我認為,兩者之間的界線已經逐漸地消失,而且我也很幸運的已經開始這樣的創作一段時間。」KAWS的創作靈感取材於大眾文化,無論是流行品牌廣告或是卡通人物,他運用詼諧幽默的方式重新建構,將消費文化與藝術相結合,打破了精緻藝術的階級性。他藝術哲理儼然成為一股勢不可擋的風潮擴散到全世界,使當代藝壇進入「跨界」協作的新紀元。

    1995年KAWS於大都會人壽廣告板上,落款自己的名字「KAWS」成為他首次與《花生》的藝術邂逅,之後KAWS也數次將這個深植人心的卡通片角色融入他的各類型計畫中。「我覺得在美國長大的小孩沒有不知道《花生》漫畫的。無論是萬聖節的南瓜頭,亦或是報紙上看到的不同卡通,它似乎無處不在。」, 作品《無題MBFS4》中KAWS使用《花生》卡通的第一主角為主體,幽默的以標誌性的「X」符號,替代了角色的眼睛,這樣趣味性的錯置,捕捉觀者的注意力,闡述這個時代叛逆的風氣。而另外值得注意的是,依造型體切割的不規則畫布,搭配簡單明快的黑色線條視覺表現,凸顯KAWS對波普藝術和大眾文化的獨到解讀。

      KAWS

      American • 1974

      To understand the work of KAWS is to understand his roots in the skateboard and graffiti crews of New York City. Brian Donnelly chose KAWS as his moniker to tag city streets beginning in the 1990s, and quickly became a celebrated standout in the scene. Having swapped spray paint for explorations in fine art spanning sculpture, painting and collage, KAWS has maintained a fascination with classic cartoons, including Garfield, SpongeBob SquarePants and The Simpsons, and reconfigured familiar subjects into a world of fantasy. 

      Perhaps he is most known for his larger-than-life fiberglass sculptures that supplant the body of Mickey Mouse onto KAWS' own imagined creatures, often with 'x'-ed out eyes or ultra-animated features. However, KAWS also works frequently in neon and vivid paint, adding animation and depth to contemporary paintings filled with approachable imagination. There is mass appeal to KAWS, who exhibits globally and most frequently in Asia, Europe and the United States.
