KAWS has succeeded in crossing the boundary between Pop art and broader popular art. Despite previous indifference, I now recognize him as a true artist.
The Drawing Center exhibition allows a deeper understanding of KAWS, challenging my previous belief that he was merely an art director masquerading as an artist.
KAWS's work, reliant on a mini-universe of figurines, may seem shallow, but his retrospective provides a more nuanced appreciation of his creative scope.
The assertion that KAWS's global popularity replaces aesthetic judgment with monetary metrics underestimates the artistic depth present in his body of work.
