  • Along the Way- Black Fine Art Toy by Kaws- Brian Donnelly Along the Way- Black Fine Art Toy by Kaws- Brian Donnelly

    Kaws- Brian Donnelly Along the Way- Black Fine Art Toy by Kaws- Brian Donnelly

    Along the Way- Black Limited Edition Vinyl Art Toy Collectible Artwork by Modern Pop Artist Kaws. 2019 Limited Out of Print Open Edition 10 x 7-1/2 x 3-1/2 inches. Displayed With Packaging. KAWS (b. 1974) Along the Way (Black), 2019 Painted cast vinyl 10 x 7-1/2 x 3-1/2 inches (25.4 x 19.1 x 8.9 cm) Open Edition Stamped to the underside of the feet Produced by Medicom Toy, Tokyo The Significance of KAWS' Along the Way in the Pantheon of Street Pop and Graffiti Art In the contemporary vortex of Street Pop Art and Graffiti Artwork, few names are as instantly recognizable as that of KAWS, the pseudonym of American artist and designer Brian Donnelly. His enigmatic characters and motifs have transcended the street to occupy the lofty realms of high art and collectible design. The "Along the Way" series epitomizes KAWS' acumen in creating art that resonates with a broad audience while retaining the gritty ethos of street culture. The "Along the Way" Black Limited Edition Vinyl Art Toy, released in 2019, is a paradigm of KAWS' aesthetic, melding a sleek, polished finish with the emotional depth of his characters. The work showcases two figures in a moment of camaraderie or support, encapsulating universal themes of friendship and unity. This piece, measuring 10 x 7-1/2 x 3-1/2 inches, is a tangible expression of the artist's signature style, featuring the crossed-out eyes that have become synonymous with his oeuvre. Crafted from painted cast vinyl, this artwork is stamped on the underside of the feet, a mark of authenticity and a nod to the underground aspects of street art. Produced by Medicom Toy in Tokyo, a company known for its quality and collaboration with artists to create limited edition figures, "Along the Way" is an open edition, allowing for accessibility often absent in high art. This approach aligns with the democratic spirit of street art, where visibility and public engagement are paramount. KAWS' Impact on Street Pop Art and Its Commercial Success KAWS' journey from a graffiti artist tagging the streets of New York to a renowned figure in the art world is a testament to the evolving perceptions of street art. His works, such as the "Along the Way" series, bridge the often segregated domains of traditional fine art and the dynamism of street culture. By bringing his distinct iconography into the three-dimensional form of vinyl toys, KAWS has helped to elevate the medium to an art form respected by collectors and museums alike. The commercial success of "Along the Way" and other KAWS pieces also highlights the increasingly porous boundaries between art, commerce, and collectibility. By producing art in toys, KAWS taps into the nostalgia and playfulness inherent in pop culture while commenting on its mass-produced nature. His work resonates with art fans and a generation that grew up with the visual language of cartoons, toys, and bold graphics. The Aesthetic and Cultural Resonance of KAWS' Artwork The aesthetic of KAWS deftly marries graffiti's raw, immediate nature with a polished pop art sensibility. In "Along the Way," the figures are rendered in black, a choice that imbues the work with a sense of both sophistication and depth. The monochromatic scheme emphasizes the form and emotion conveyed by the characters' posture and interaction rather than distracting with color. IThisfocus on form and affect tllows KAWS' work to communicate beyond language and cultural barriers, striking a chord with a global audience. Culturally, KAWS' work resonates because it reflects the ethos of street art in a form that is palatable to the mainstream. By presenting his artwork in a collectible and displayable manner, KAWS bridges the divide between the subversive origins of street art and the desire for art that can be owned and cherished. The "Along the Way" figures are not only art pieces but artifacts of a cultural movement that blurs the lines between high and low art, between the gallery wall and the city street. The "Along the Way" Black Limited Edition Vinyl Art Toy by KAWS is not merely a collectible item; it is a significant piece of Street Pop Art that encapsulates the evolution of graffiti into a recognized and highly valued form of artistic expression. It stands as a testament to the power of street art to permeate and transform mainstream art culture and as a symbol of KAWS' indelible impact on the art world.

    Dog Save The Queen Limited Edition Polystone Resin Bust Sculpture Artwork by graffiti street artist modern pop artist D*Face. Displayed With Box In celebration of her Madge’s 95th birthday, StolenSpace is very proud to be releasing a very limited number of D*Face's most recent collaborative sculpture edition with Medicom Toys. She stands 15" tall (38 cm) and is made from high-quality polystone, sculpted by Perfect Studio. Each piece comes housed in a specially designed box. "Dog Save The Queen" is a sculpture created by the contemporary British artist Dean Stockton, better known as DFace. DFace is well-known for his graffiti, paintings, and sculptures that often incorporate elements of pop culture and social commentary. He is heavily influenced by street art, punk, and skateboarding culture, and his work has been compared to that of other popular street artists like Banksy and Shepard Fairey. The "Dog Save The Queen" sculpture features a unique take on the iconic British symbol, the Union Jack. The piece showcases a bulldog a breed commonly associated with British identity, symbolizing the monarchy Queen of England Elizabeth II. The title of the work is a play on the phrase "God Save the Queen," which is the British national anthem and a rallying cry for the country's monarchy. DFace's "Dog Save The Queen" sculpture represents the artist's commentary on British identity, patriotism, and the role of the monarchy in modern society. Through the use of the bulldog, Union Jack, and crown, DFace highlights the intertwining of these symbols in the collective British consciousness. The playful title and representation of the bulldog suggest a tongue-in-cheek approach to exploring these themes, inviting viewers to consider their own thoughts on British identity and the monarchy.

His signature style is characterized by bold, dripping lines that evoke a sense of motion and raw energy, elements that are masterfully translated onto the BE@RBRICK canvas. The Krink 1000% BE@RBRICK features this distinctive drip motif in a striking silver and black color scheme, with the Krink logo emblazoned across the figure's chest. While a departure from traditional street art mediums, the vinyl toy becomes a three-dimensional representation of Costello's artistic ethos. The piece is an innovative extension of Krink's brand identity, reaching beyond the streets and into urban collectibles. The Art Toy as a Modern Canvas With collectibles like BE@RBRICK at the forefront, the art toy movement has provided a new canvas for artists traditionally associated with street pop art and graffiti artwork. These figures offer a unique opportunity to merge the tactile with the visual, allowing artists to explore form, texture, and design in a compact, tangible format.

His ability to transition from fluid inks on urban walls to vinyl figures on display shelves demonstrates the boundless potential of street pop art to infiltrate and enhance every aspect of the modern aesthetic experience. Ultimately, the Krink 1000% BE@RBRICK stands as a physical testament to the dynamic dialogue between art and commerce, the rebel spirit of graffiti, and the meticulous craft of collectible design.

The Intersection of Medicom Toy and Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork

Medicom Toy, a Japanese company renowned for its innovative and artistic collectible toys, stands at the forefront of the intersection between commercial art and street pop art & graffiti artwork. Founded in 1996, Medicom Toy has become a cultural icon in the art world, mainly through its BE@RBRICK and Kubrick series. While functioning as collectibles, these toys have transcended their initial market to become significant pieces in pop and street art. Medicom Toy's products were initially seen as novelties or collector's items. However, the company has collaborated with many artists, designers, and brands over the years, transforming its toys into canvases for artistic expression. This fusion of toy-making and art has enabled Medicom Toy to play a pivotal role in diffusing street pop art and graffiti artwork. Artists from diverse backgrounds have used Medicom Toy's figures as a medium to showcase their unique styles, themes, and messages, bridging the gap between mainstream and underground art.

BE@RBRICK: A Symbol in Street Pop and Graffiti Art

The BE@RBRICK, a bear-shaped figure, has become mainly symbolic in this context. These figures, often decorated with intricate designs, have been used by street artists and pop artists alike to express social commentary, political statements, or purely aesthetic designs. The versatility of the BE@RBRICK as a medium for artistic expression is evident in its widespread popularity and the diversity of designs it has featured. From simple color variations to complex graphics and collaborations with high-profile artists, the BE@RBRICK has become a staple in modern art. Medicom Toy's collaborations extend beyond individual artists to include fashion brands, musicians, and iconic characters from popular culture. These collaborations have cemented the company's position within the art community, showcasing how commercial products can become integral parts of artistic expression and cultural commentary. Each partnership brings a new dimension to Medicom Toy's figures, reflecting current trends, societal issues, or historical art movements. This cross-pollination of ideas and styles has made Medicom Toy a significant player in contemporary art, particularly in the street pop and graffiti art niches. The influence of Medicom Toy in the art world extends beyond the physical toys themselves. Exhibitions, auctions, and dedicated galleries featuring Medicom toy figures have become common, highlighting these objects' artistic value and cultural significance. The company has also inspired a new generation of artists and designers, who see these toys as legitimate mediums for creative expression. The blending of commercialism and art through Medicom Toy's figures has prompted discussions and debates within the art community about the nature of art, commercialization, and the boundaries between high art and popular culture.

Medicom Toy's Role in Shaping Modern Art

Medicom Toy's contribution to street pop art and graffiti artwork is undeniable. The company has created a unique niche where commercialism, pop culture, and fine art intersect by transforming toys into art pieces. This convergence has redefined what is considered art and expanded the avenues through which artists can express themselves. As Medicom Toy continues to innovate and collaborate, its impact on the art world will likely grow, further blurring the lines between different art forms and making art more accessible and diverse.
