The Business of KAWS: What Data and a Museum Show Reveal About His Market

The San Francisco Museum of Modern Art (SFMOMA) is currently hosting a major survey of KAWS, marking the final stop of a three-city tour that highlights the artist's unique blend of commercial savvy and institutional ambition. The exhibition features a range of works from diamond-encrusted sculptures for Kid Cudi to a 'genius' membership drive that sold 1,000 KAWS-branded museum memberships at $300 each. Despite a significant cooling in his auction results—dropping from a 2019 peak of $112.9 million to just $7.72 million last year—the artist continues to draw massive crowds, particularly among younger demographics.

Thaddaeus Ropac has announced global representation of the Martha Diamond Trust in collaboration with David Kordansky Gallery. The late New York painter, who passed away in 2023, is known for her expressive, gestural cityscapes of Manhattan that balance abstraction and figuration. The partnership aims to elevate Diamond’s international profile, beginning with her first European museum survey at the Sara Hildén Art Museum in Finland in 2026, followed by a solo exhibition at Ropac’s Paris gallery in 2027.
