KAWS has announced an exhibition of new works including sculptures and paintings will be heading to London next month.

Following a post on September 8, which detailed the dates of the upcoming “BLACKOUT” exhibition, the artist has now offered up a further tease of what we can expect from the showcase. In his most recent post, KAWS shows blue and grey BFF Companion figures hugging each other, as well as a color-blocked painting featuring 3D-like black zig-zags that overlay the bold patterns.

KAWS continues to inform that “BLACKOUT” will take place at Skarstedt Gallery in London, which has previously hosted the artist in its New York residency as well as Barbara Kruger in its London outpost. “BLACKOUT” will been shown from October 1 through to November 9.

In other news, Kenny Scharf has launched a body of new work at LA’s Honor Fraser Gallery.
