I had the pleasure of visiting the KAWS exhibit at the Mary Boone Gallery, located in the heart of Chelsea, NY. The exhibit features three wooden statues, each over eighteen tall and nearly reaching the ceiling of the gallery. One piece, titled Along The Way, features two figures paired together, while the third piece, standing alone, is titled At This Time. The central motif of the exhibit revolves around loss, grief, and consolation.
You can see more images, as well as read the press release, at Mary Boone Gallery. KAWS currently has another exhibit at the Philadelphia Academy of Fine Arts.
Make sure you check them out (if you have the opportunity to visit both New York and Pennsylvania)!
