KAWS AT WORK IN '97 AND KNOWLEDGE

Jersey City native KAWS IN '97 AKA THE WONDER YEARS.

And on the other note theres a new street ad inspired artist now out in the streets called POSTER BOY. 11 years later someone comes up with the balls to go out there and make art free hand in other words. No one understands the adrenaline rush the risk your taking the creativity involved at hand. I can say one thing he sure does and I know many others that do as well. Recently POSTER BOY and some of his accomplices have been caught and charged with the art adjustments that have been done to the MoMA (Modern Museum of Art) art work that's been placed in various NYC subway stations. They could be facing jail time and pricey fines against them. They just did it for the art not for the money not for the fame hence he wears a scarf around his face to cover his identity. Just simply for the art and like he expresses in the video people like it. Its something different something you don't see everywhere and that's whats so cool about it. See that's what KAWS did 11 yrs ago and that's what POSTER BOY is doing now. Like Andy Warhol once said "Art is what you can get away with." Well I say that was 30 some odd years ago you can't get away with shit now.
