Presenting The Past, 2014
This signed screen print, created in 2014 by the acclaimed American artist KAWS, is a burst of color and whimsy. The composition features a cartoon character with a snake-like form wrapped around it, set against a backdrop of bold graphic shapes in purple, yellow, and pink. A frowning purple circle with arms and a mouth adds to the playful absurdity.
By 2014, KAWS was already a well-established artist, known for his collaborations with celebrities like Kanye West and Pharrell Williams, and brands like Nike, Comme Des Garçons, and Uniqlo. This tendency to bridge the gap between high art and popular culture reflects KAWS's belief that art should be accessible to everyone. His work, drawing inspiration from graffiti and street art, finds a broad audience and brings recognition to these art forms.
