KAWS: "The Long Way Home" at Honor Fraser in LA



Even if you think you don't know who KAWS is, chances are you have seen at least one or two of his images, collaborations, or sculptures. The Brooklyn-based pop artist has been everywhere of late, and his latest venture is a show titled "The Long Way Home" at LA's Honor Fraser Gallery. If you are in the area, check it out. Opening night is this Saturday, February 20 at 6 pm.

These images are sneak peeks via SuperTouch. Check out the KAWS Flickr group for a (quite obviously) more complete look at his work.

Christ "sneak peek" is right. I see a Smurf, a hand, and a train whistle with teeth. That's like a trailer for Star Wars showing a Jawa, Chewbacca's left foot, and a storm trooper codpiece.
