The KAWS WHAT PARTY (Orange) figure is part of the acclaimed WHAT PARTY series released in 2020 by KAWS in collaboration with MEDICOM TOY. This series marked one of the artist’s most reflective bodies of work, coinciding with his major solo exhibition “WHAT PARTY” held at the Brooklyn Museum (2021) — a showcase exploring themes of nostalgia, exhaustion, and the human condition beneath the cheerful surface of pop iconography. The sculpture depicts the iconic COMPANION figure—KAWS’s recurring character—slouched and introspective, with its arms hanging low and head tilted downward. Unlike earlier, more animated iterations, this design expresses a subdued and contemplative tone, echoing the emotional complexity of KAWS’s later work. Rendered in vivid matte orange, the figure embodies the contrast between industrial precision and emotional depth. Its surface features smooth, high-quality vinyl construction, true to MEDICOM TOY’s renowned craftsmanship.

A museum-worthy work for serious collectors of KAWS, MEDICOM TOY, and modern pop art. ◯Buyers - Please Note: Import duties, taxes and charges are not included in the item price or shipping charges.
