Meaning & Analysis

The print is one of nine prints that compose The News collection. In this collection, KAWS produces nine prints that all privilege the close-up angle, as well as the use of bright and bold colours and a circular canvas. The collection was made at a point in KAWS’ artistic career in which he had become a prominent artist whose work was recognised all over the world. KAWS had developed a strong global following and had worked with prominent celebrities such as Kanye West and Pharrell Williams, as well as notable brands like Nike, Comme des Garcon and Uniqlo.

The News IV along with the other prints in the collection are more abstract than many of KAWS’ other prints, reflective of the artist’s visual experimentation which marked the works produced later in his artistic career.

  • American-born artist, KAWS, is renowned for his cartoon figures, prints and 'subvertisements'. Born in 1974 to the burgeoning New York graffiti and street art scene, KAWS has successfully combined fine art and pop culture to create his own lane in the urban art world. His distinct aesthetic, characterised by playful figures and a subversive take on pop culture icons, has earned him acclaim in both the art and mainstream realms. Most notable is his Companion figure which has achieved global critical and commercial success, and has formed collaborations with the likes of Nike and Dior Homme.
