Kaws Walks the Line
Kaws continues to walk the line between fine art and pop culture consumerism. Last week marked the opening of his first solo gallery show in several years at Miami’s Galerie Emmanuel Perrotin, coupled with the announcement of his second official Star Wars collaboration, a custom Stormtrooper that serves as an excellent companion (if you get it, please excuse the lame joke) to his previously released Darth Vader figure. More show images after the jump.
