- What does KAWS’s art mean?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertFebruary 21, 2024What KAWS’s art means is open to interpretation. In the late 1990s, the artist, a 1996 graduate of New York’s School of Visual Arts, was making a living as an illustrator for the animation studio Jumbo Pictures. Like young Hansel and Gretel with their trail of crumbs, KAWS would mark the morning route to his downtown Manhattan office with “subvertising,” “interrupting” fashion advertisements by adding his colorful character Bendy, its sinuous length sliding playfully around the likes of a Calvin Klein perfume bottle or supermodel Christy Turlington. Companion is now the most visible of the KAWS posse, appearing over the past decade in new postures and combinations in monumental works. KAWS’s visual language may be drawn from cartoons, but his work doesn’t necessarily evoke childlike joy. “My figures are not always reflecting the idealistic cartoon view that I grew up on,” he explained in the catalogue for an exhibition at the Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth, in Texas. “Companion is more real in dealing with contemporary human circumstances . . . . I think when I’m making work it also often mirrors what’s going on with me at that time.” On 1stDibs, find a diverse assortment of KAWS art.

- What does canon mean in art?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 26, 2024In art, canon refers to a standard used to compare artworks. The canon is the set of pieces generally agreed upon by historians to be of exceptionally high quality due to the artists' originality, skill and technique. Historically, pieces considered outside the canon were not thought to be as great as those that were and went largely understudied. Although the term "the canon" is still in use today, scholars no longer use this strict method of evaluating works and instead tend to consider the social and cultural implications when determining what is worthy of research and study.
