KAWS

Brian Donnelly (b. 1974) is a New York–based artist best known by the moniker KAWS, which he has used since the 1990s for both his work as a graffiti and fine artist and in branding his fiercely entrepreneurial ventures into clothing and product design
.
His signature cartoon skull and XX eyes were seen by hundreds of thousands in a hugely influential “interventionist” series when, in 1996, he began altering light-box ads on Manhattan streets.

He reputedly received a skeleton key from a fellow artist, allowing him easy access to phone booth and bus shelter advertising displays throughout the city.
