KAWS Exhibition @ PAFA

Following the appearance of his massive “Passing Through” Companion at the city’s 30th Street

Following the appearance of his massive “Passing Through” Companion at the city’s 30th Street Station earlier this year, KAWS is set to return to Pennsylvania for a nearly year-long display at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts. Simply dubbed “KAWS @ PAFA,” the exhibition will see more than 60 paintings and sculptures highlighted at PAFA’s Historic Landmark Building while the Academy will kick off its new Sculpture Plinth Exhibition Program by displaying a new KAWS sculpture – previewed by Donnelly himself via Instagram and dubbed BORN TO BEND – on its front facade. “KAWS @ PAFA” is set to open October 12 and run through January 5, 2014 while BORN TO BEND will remain on view through August of next year.
