This auction is for the KAWS Companion 5 Years Later in brown. From the collection of R.C. (the Reclusive Collector), this is a once in a life time opportunity!!! Produced by Medicom in 2004, this highly-detailed collectible stands at 15.0 in tall. Limited to 500 world wide, this toy is very rare! This item has been on display for the last few years, and does show slight display wear. Normal 0 false false false MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 Brian Donnelly, otherwise know as “KAWS,” has been at the fore front of the urban street art movement for years. Donnelly work began appearing in the early 1990s around Jersey City and New York in the form of painting walls and writing graffiti. By the mid 90s KAWS began appropriating advertisements found at bus shelters and phone booths in NYC and placed his mark upon them in the form of cartoon-like skull-and-crossbones. For the next few years, this became his trademark and Donnelly continued to re-work advertising materials not only in New York City, but in other popular urban centers (Paris, London, Berlin and Tokyo to name a few). Since that time, KAWS’ work has been gathered together and featured in numerous publications as well as exhibited at PARCO Gallery, Tokyo and the MU Art Foundation in the Netherlands. In recent years KAWS has moved into commercial success with his collections of “toys.” These “toys” depict iconic and modern pop culture characters ranging from Mickey Mouse to the Simpsons. Donnelly’s work continues to find the fine line between art, commerce, and cartoons. Exploring the median in a way that few others have, KAWS is a true visionary of his time.
