Kaws @ the Modern Art Museum in Fort Worth, by Coach on Oct 31, 2016 17:16:47 GMT 1, Funny article about Kaws lawsuit - kerfuffle between a haughty dealer and a haughty art advisor. Who will win? They both sound like self righteous t**ts. Boone probably more so, she must be an awful person. Ashame Kaws associates with her. I like the part about her not selling work to "unimportant" collections. i.e. If you're not filthy rich and already part of the "club" I won't sell you this painting for $200k that you can flip for 1 million in 10 years. news.artnet.com/art-world/mary-boone-art-advisor-embroiled-legal-fight-kaws-sale-582239
Bravo for the use of one of my favourite words - kerfuffle.

Won't be surprised if they're gone by now. Appreciate the gesture anyway. Based on the photos, will be excellent to see, and I think I need to book a flight to make it before it closes.

Kaws @ the Modern Art Museum in Fort Worth, by pedrofuhrer on Nov 1, 2016 1:32:01 GMT 1, Medicom Japan will start online sales next Saturday, but unfortunately they do not ship overseas. It's only for Japan residents. This info is in a link about info & shipping details here: www.medicomtoy.tv/blog/?p=33808
I think we'll have to wait for the modern to re-stock or to kawsone.com to begin their sales...

Kaws @ the Modern Art Museum in Fort Worth, by pedrofuhrer on Nov 1, 2016 1:43:25 GMT 1, In this thread some people has already told that they've got info that there'll be a re-stock and also that they'll start to sell at kawsone.
But you're right. We don't know if they'll do that.
Just keeping it positive...

There will be more. open edition doesn't mean they will continue to produce them. Just means it's not a numbered edition. It would be great for the fans to keep making them but I don't see that happening.

Not trying to be negative but I don't think The Modern will be restocking. They would not have cancelled orders if a restock was coming.

Kaws @ the Modern Art Museum in Fort Worth, by natstan on Nov 1, 2016 8:00:06 GMT 1, It'd be interesting to see the market reaction if this gets released at different sites in the coming months. Expect to see the flippers panic sell. I think the secondary market purchases are just based on impulse/ panic buy as well. For a bit more money, you could get the limited editions - though not necessarily for the original companions and dissected - for other kaws figures if one knows where and how to look for the auethentic ones.

Kaws @ the Modern Art Museum in Fort Worth, by The Origin on Nov 1, 2016 13:05:07 GMT 1, I'm almost certain there will be a lot more of these released and enough to go round for everyone.
I think it's kaws way of getting his art into the hands of all of his fans seeing as much of his work is out of reach for most people these days.
With this in mind I'm sure he will make sure enough are made to cater for the demand.
I think it will ultimately hurt the value of the original companions and dissected companions with so many of these smaller versions flooding the market.
I think it may have the opposite effect on the passing through and resting place companions however as fans will want these to go with the new open editions and this will increase the prices of these accordingly.
I think it has been great release, especially as it had been long speculated that he would never release any more vinyl toys, and has shown the massive demand for his work across the globe.
Now it's banksy turn to step up with an open edition...

I find it even more disgusting the museum says they were fair. And that Kaws stays mum. Actually, I wouldnt be surprised if yupreme is at least associated with both.

Actually, I wouldnt be surprised if yupreme is at least associated with both. I think that it would have been fair to have them exclusively released through the Modern store in person for fans who make the trip. 1 set per customer. Not 3.
Would have been very cool to do this with each show he opens.
I am flying out to Dallas from CA this Friday and checking out the show Sat. Bummer that everything is gone and being flipped.

Actually, I wouldnt be surprised if yupreme is at least associated with both. Those are all in Medicom bags. So it looks as though they were purchased in Japan instead of through The Modern. Still, pretty ridiculous.

So i'm just biding my time and certainly not considering buying on the secondary market.
