KAWS “TIDE” Limited Edition Print 2023, by Happy Shopper on Oct 1, 2023 11:55:31 GMT 1, I have helped several Africans. I also financed the Louise Michel ship, albeit with few resources. Lebanese, Chinese, African, European instead of Russian or American, it makes no difference to me. I'm not racist. They reminded me of the image of those dead at sea. How am I sure? What kind of fucking question are you asking? Those poor things were migrants from Africa!That image is bad. In poor taste and far from artistically acceptable. People buy it just to make money. Whether you like my answer or not, it is my answer. The ignorance of some people, however, is shocking. Fortunately it only belongs to a few specimens. Those who usually persist in not finding the answer, even if it is very simple to find. Friendliness. Here we go. The usual defence. No I can’t be racist. I have Africans as friends or in your case “ I have helped Africans” Enjoy the rest of your day , in the future , make your point without dragging a continent into your comment. what’s the problem with someone saying the image reminds them of something? if you live in Italy and see news stories every day of drowned migrants coming from Africa, you might well think this image reminds you of that. Noting wrong with that interpretation. No right or wrong.
We don’t all speak English as a first language so let’s not argue about the way someone expresses an opinion.

KAWS “TIDE” Limited Edition Print 2023, by lukas01 on Oct 1, 2023 12:12:54 GMT 1, I won't change my thoughts. It's not quite clear what your "thoughts" are (and no, this is not an invitation to explain or elaborate ) Obviously, the last comment where I write that Kaws' work is beautiful turns out to be very sarcastic. :-)))
I don't change my mind about the fact that it's something not to buy.

KAWS “TIDE” Limited Edition Print 2023, by Acme Thunderer on Oct 1, 2023 17:46:31 GMT 1, Page 23 of the book has a whopping 22cm x 22cm image. That’s 15% bigger than the print and saves £1,960.

KAWS “TIDE” Limited Edition Print 2023, by Winter on Oct 2, 2023 9:42:25 GMT 1, There are many ways this image can be interpreted which I think is a positive in a piece of art. I've never managed to work out the meaning of most of his works or if there is any meaning. What the 'Urge' prints are about I'll never know.

KAWS “TIDE” Limited Edition Print 2023, by gus on Oct 2, 2023 9:49:08 GMT 1, I'm not concerned about lukas01 saying the picture reminds him of African immigrants. BUT very curious as to why that makes him dislike the image? This should be the real concern and we should ask him more about this. Do you not want attention place on the migrants situation? You don't like art that depicts horrible events? You hate Africans and don't like images of them? Explain yourself so we can get to the bottom of this.

KAWS “TIDE” Limited Edition Print 2023, by topper on Oct 2, 2023 10:54:27 GMT 1, The state of this thread.
People calling others racist because the piece reminds them of immigrant drownings. People calling the work disgusting because it might be addressing immigrant drownings.
This is supposed to be art, which is supposed to address issues that don't sit comfortably in the mainstream.
If you find this all too much, wait until you learn about the works of Goya or Picasso...

The subject matter is too difficult and delicate and the language barrier seemed unsurmountable.

KAWS “TIDE” Limited Edition Print 2023, by rbt on Oct 2, 2023 13:07:17 GMT 1, Ultra Violet ink Is that glow in the dark ? Classic little kaws for a couple of grand is a nice pickup for a collector of his works Can’t compare it to anything else , it’s priced about right and it’s a nice image His recent prints have had more APs than this entire edition size so they won’t be too easy to get hold of No UV inks are specially formulated to cure when exposed to ultraviolet (UV) light instead of oxidation (air) All quality printers have UV inks ... so using UV filtering plexi or UV glass isn’t good for this print?

Either way, it's one of his more interesting works of late. Congrats to everyone that got one. Except the flipper that got two!
