Arrested Motion shares this exciting news – “KAWS fans in LA may remember his last showing in the City of Angels not only for the great art, but also for the long lines and large crowds they had to battle to get a look at their favorite artist.  Well, let that be a lesson the second time around as he will be returning to Honor Fraser scheduled for a September 10th opening (perhaps with some Hennessy for attendees to sample).  If these new images and his recent showing with the gallery at the Armory are any indications of what to expect, it looks as though the street turned fine artist will be experimenting with new color schemes for this new body of work.”
