Kaws NGV - COMPANIONSHIP IN THE AGE OF LONELINESS, by nobokov on Dec 2, 2019 4:22:50 GMT 1, The edition size makes me feel like it's gonna be bought by every gallery and reseller, each competing for minimum profit.

Kaws NGV - COMPANIONSHIP IN THE AGE OF LONELINESS, by Adam The Collector on Dec 2, 2019 4:22:53 GMT 1, What would you rather have a Brooklyn, Mocad or this? I think personally this would be at the bottom of my list.
What would you rather have a Brooklyn, Mocad or this? I think personally this would be at the bottom of my list. How could you want a Mocad print over this? I am no Kaws expert but all signs point to this being a far stronger work on all grounds. |

I would pick a MOCAD print every time over this NGV print.
Of all the sketches he could pick this is the weakness.
Wouldn't consider myself a expert....but I have buying his stuff since 2005.

Totally agree.. this one is so โsignatureโ KAWS. On some Mocad you donโt even have one โXโ here you got six of them.

I am no Kaws expert but all signs point to this being a far stronger work on all grounds. Kaws is all about his colour, shading, composition etc. All of which can be found in "some" Mocads. I'd take one of the good Mocad's or Brooklyn's all day. Not knocking those who want this in any way, I see the appeal of an official release. I am just generally curious of what people would choose. |

To each their own. I get the allure of pretty bright colors for most.

I dont know but I said f it and bought one. Been looking to get a decent kaws print for a while, and I just don't see getting a better image at the price. If the KAWS market crashes I'll be happy to take a loss on this one and pick up another one at a better price point.

This print looks great to me. Kaws classic characters, good size, signed, and has a clear meaning. Seems a very decent buy for the price.

To me, the MOCAD and Brooklyn are like the Kaws equivalent of the Banksy 'Thrower Arm' giveaway print from GDP. Very nice and things I'd be very happy to own, but not really an artwork in their own right. They're a piece of an artwork and only make sense if you explain where they came from.

Exactly. This release is just scraps for those who have missed out on the KAWS boat and are trying to convince themselves this is a nice image for the price. KAWS has never been known for his sketches.

To say Kaws has never been known for his sketches is not really true. And if the appeal of an artwork is in how many other people have it, above all else, then we're not really talking about art collecting.

You can pick up a MOCAD for about the same price as this, so it's not really a case of buying this because you can't afford anything else. If you've got ยฃ3,000ish, you can have either.

Kaws NGV - COMPANIONSHIP IN THE AGE OF LONELINESS, by Gentle Mental on Dec 2, 2019 8:23:38 GMT 1, there is no question this is an iconic image. BFF X COMPANION. You can't go any more iconic than that... Not a spongebob or abstract colour blocks - this is signature KAWS.... the print size is decent too. And it's a silkscreen.. and Brian's super particular about details - so it will look great.... question is - is 750 x 4k USD too large an edition? Did he just cut open the golden goose?
