Meaning & Analysis

Companion Vs Astroboy is part of KAWS’ Astroboy collection, a body of artworks, all of which depict his beloved cartoon character, Companion. The print can be seen alongside Companion Vs Pikachu, 2002, which similarly shows Companion in a fight with another well-known cartoon character.

Companion was created by KAWS in 1999 and was born out of KAWS’ early experimentation with graffiti and street art. KAWS moved to New York to study illustration at the School of Visual Arts in the 1990s and took to the streets, spray painting phone booths and bus shelters with a stock of original cartoon characters, one of which was Companion.
