KAWS, Karl Wirsum and Tomoo Gokita Feature in "A Shared Space" Exhibition
New York’s finest comes to New Orleans, with his favorite artists in tow.
Newcomb Art Museum in New Orleans is set to host a KAWS exhibition from September 9 that will feature work from Karl Wirsum and Tomoo Gokita alongside the Brooklyn-based designer’s iconic output. “I think of collecting like building a library I can access and reference 24/7” he explained on the choice to incorporate other artists’ work, “I collect firstly for personal daily enjoyment but I also collect to fully comprehend as well as support the world I work and live in. Ultimately for me, understanding art and artists leads you to other art and artists. It’s a never-ending conversation, and it’s exciting.” A Shared Space: KAWS, Karl Wirsum, Tomoo Gokita runs until January 3, 2016.
