Silkscreen // Running Chum #2 by KAWS is a bold silkscreen print that features the artist's iconic character, Chum, rendered in a minimalist black-and-white palette. The piece focuses on Chum’s exaggerated features—thick, rounded forms and expressive lines—highlighting the playful, cartoonish nature of the figure. The composition is both abstract and figurative, with Chum’s crossed-out eyes adding a signature touch of dark humor. The stark contrast between black and white amplifies the graphic impact, making this a striking example of KAWS' exploration of pop culture, street art, and contemporary iconography.

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.
