Kaws
21st century
Kaws (b 1974) is a pseudonym for American artist and designer Brian Connellly. Kaws used to work for Disney and in 1999 he created his first vinyl toy Companion. This was a collaboration with Bounty Hunter, a toy and streetwear brand and the edition of 500 sold out almost immediately. Kaws characters are clearly influenced by his work in Disney because many characters wear white gloves and have shorts and shoes just like Mickey Mouse, yet they have distinctive x marks instead of the eyes as a signature style of Kaws.
Kaws (s 1974) on Ameerika kunstniku ja disaineri Brian Connelly pseudonüüm. Kaws on endine Disney töötaja ning 1999. aastal lõi ta oma esimese vinüülist mänguasja “Companion”. Tegemist oli koostööga mänguasjade ja tänavamoe brändiga Bounty Hunter ja 500 “Companioni” müügi peaaegu silmapilkselt läbi. Kawsi tegelased on selgelt inspireeritud tema tööst Disneys kuna paljud tema tegelased kannavad valgeid kindaid ja neil on samasugused püksid ning jalanõud nagu Miki Hiirel, samas on neil kunstniku käekirjale kohaselt silmade asemel x märgid.
