Frequently portraying familiar figures such as Mickey Mouse and Spongebob Squarepants with cauliflower ears and X'ed-out eyes, KAWS employs a sophisticated dark humour throughout his work, exploring the relationship between art and consumerism.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThis publication documents the artist's first exhibit in the Middle East, with more than 40 key pieces in sculpture and painting from the last two decades. The exhibit in Doha, Qatar, and its accompanying catalog also feature a number of KAWS' commercial collaborations alongside his 5-meter-tall sculpture Companion (Passing Through) and his inflatable 40-meter-tall piece Holiday. Bound in cloth, this volume is a gorgeous collection of KAWS' most exciting work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eBrian Donnelly (born 1974), known professionally by his graffiti tag KAWS, is the mastermind behind one of today's most recognisable artistic brands.
