Brian Donnelly (1974- , USA)
Brian Donnelly, aka “KAWS”, manifested himself
for the first time in the early 1990s by painting
walls and writing graffiti in and around Jersey
City and New York. In the mid-1990s, he began
appropriating advertisements from bus shelters
and phone booths in New York City and painting
a graphic, cartoon-like skull-and-crossbones
image into them. He continued to develop this
motif for the next few years, re-working advertis-
ing materials not only in bus shelters and phone
booths in New York City, but in Paris, London,
Berlin, and Tokyo. This work has been featured
in numerous publications, as well as exhibited at
Colette, Paris, PARCO Gallery, Tokyo, MU Art
Foundation, the Netherlands, as well as at
BAPE Gallery, Tokyo. His recent work has been
influenced by iconic characters from modern pop
culture, such as Mickey Mouse, “The Michelin
Man”, and The Simpsons. KAWS’ work treads
the fine line between art, commerce, cartoons,
and commercials. It is a disruption of, as well as
a tribute to, all objects produced, bought, sold,
exchanged, desired, and cherished. KAWS stud-
ied at The School of Visual Arts in New York
City, and currently lives in Brooklyn.

The French artist ZEVS is known to many
because of his spectacular \"Visual Kidnapping\"
campaign. At the Berlin Alexanderplatz he cut a
female figure out of an oversize advertisement
banner from the company \"Lavazza\" and \"black-
mailed\" them to make a 500.000 Euro donation
to the \"Palais de Tokyo\" in Paris. For some time
now, he has been dealing with the methods and
techniques of Graffiti cleaning troops in Paris
and the momentariness of Graffiti. In Wuppertal,
he worked with his subsequently created Clean
Graffiti Technique. He designed dirty walls by
working his pieces into the walls with cleaning
machines, thereby creating a negative. The
many dark, dirty and old industrial buildings that
shape the cityscape of Wuppertal inspired him to
do this work.
