Blast from the Past! Kaws, "First Bus-stops"

Text: Nik Mercer



Has it been ten years already? KAWS has been plastering the world with his graffiti (we all well know the Krusty-the-Clown-cum-skull image well by now) for well over a decade now. Anthem just came upon this great three-minute film about the artist when he was just a young, burgeoning creative trying to carve his own path in this overwhelming world.

Our favorite part is when he spills the beans on how exactly a [spray-]painter gets into those hard-to-access padlocked areas (i.e. bus-stop poster cases). Oh, and what the hell is Ron English doing in this thing!? Wow, we're drolling over this one at the Anthem HQ ... Eat it, Banksy.
