The Way I See It: Selections from the KAWS Collection
Since the 90s, KAWS (Brian Donnelly) has collected over 3,000 works on paper by a wide variety of artists, ranging from Abstract Expressionist painter Willem de Kooning to graffiti writer Dondi. His collection abounds with drawings by self-taught artists, historical and contemporary, comic artists, and graffiti artists.
It contains masterpieces by Adolf Wölfli, Martín Ramírez, and Helen Rae, sketchbook pages by graffiti writers like Lee Quiñones, comics by Robert Crumb and Rick Griffin, and drawings by Chicago Imagist artists including Jim Nutt, and Gladys Nilsson, among many others.
For this exhibition, KAWS will curate a selection of more than two hundred drawings from his collection. This exhibition will highlight KAWS’s unique connoisseurship and give context to his own art.
