Silkscreen // Running Chum #1 by KAWS, a silkscreen print from 2000, is a striking monochrome work that embodies the artist's bold, graphic style. The limited edition piece features the character Chum, one of KAWS's recurring figures, depicted in a stylized, cartoonish form with its signature crossed-out eyes. The image captures Chum mid-motion, emphasizing its plump, rounded contours and exaggerated body shape. The stark contrast between the black background and white outlines creates a powerful visual impact, showcasing KAWS’s approach of blending street art aesthetics with pop culture influences. The simplicity and boldness of the composition reflect the artist's focus on form and his critique of consumerism.

What is pop-art?
Pop Art is an art movement that began in Britain in 1955 and in the late 1950s in the U.S. It challenged traditional fine arts by incorporating imagery from popular culture, such as news, advertising, and comic books. Pop Art often isolates and recontextualizes materials, combining them with unrelated elements. The movement is more about the attitudes and ideas that inspired it than the specific art itself. Pop Art is seen as a reaction against the dominant ideas of Abstract Expressionism, bringing everyday consumer culture into the realm of fine art.
