KAWS has become a recognizable brand largely due to Brian Donnelly’s clever use of iconic imagery, particularly his signature Mickey Mouse-like hands. This playful yet familiar motif transcends age groups, appealing to both children and adults alike. By incorporating these universally recognized elements into his work, KAWS creates an immediate connection with viewers, making his art accessible and engaging.

Visiting one of Brian’s galleries is truly a special experience. The emotion of each figure can be felt through the various posing, scaling, and demeanor.

It seems like the entire world caught on to what makes KAWS so appealing.

One word; deserving.
