Kaws SEEING - $28,000USD Night Light Raffle on DDT, by Stik Shift on Jul 17, 2020 14:21:09 GMT 1, Looks like Kaws has been stirring up a bit of activity these days except this time itโs in the form of a $28,000USD night light.
Canโt imagine dropping that kind of dough on a 10โ limited edition pink night light.
These stratospheric prices are getting out of hand. Borderline extortionate.

Borderline extortionate. ddtstore.com/products/seeing-pink-1 the borderline is not existent. There's no extortion when someone willingly hands over their money.

The Blue version of this, which is a larger edition size, has sold for nearly double this price at auction... so the price isn't SOOOO bad (if you have that kind of money to drop in the first place!)

And neither are the institutions or museums that will allow an artist to have the kind of legacy his fans are hoping he will get.
You know the problem with every KAWS collector's collection?
They all look the same.

Kaws SEEING - $28,000USD Night Light Raffle on DDT, by Big Bad Mo on Jul 18, 2020 1:47:35 GMT 1, When I was in the Far East last year Kaws was everywhere. In China specifically I saw fake 4ft/8ft figures everywhere, paintings and prints throughout all the Young, Art districts, night clubs, bars. bubble tea areas, no matter what city. The Kaws figures were without doubt one of the most recognisable western things that I saw. If you didnโt know about KAWs you would assume the figures are just big in China. I went to a gallery in Shanghai that was selling a painting By a Chinese artist, it was a man sitting across from a adult size sitting Kaws figure with its head in its hands. It was quite nice actually. The gallery wanted 6 figures GBP for the canvas. Personally Iโm not a huge fan of his work, I do like the figurines but not at 50k plus and certainly not 28k for a lamp. But Based on what I saw in China alone I would be confident that his prices will only ever grow long term, with provenance being a big thing.
