Brian Donnelly, aka KAWS, began his career in the 1990s making clever modifications to fashion ads on bus shelters and phone booths in New York. His work can now be found in museums and private collections all over the world. The Companion – a Mickey Mouse-like figure with skull and crossbones for a head – has figured prominently in his work, from paintings and sculptures, to trainers and toys. To commemorate the installation of their commissioned 21’ bronze Clean Slate, The Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth released this 14” vinyl version in very limited quantities. Displayed in a custom acrylic box, it would make the perfect gift for Art Basel or Comic Con attendees alike.
