Art Trader Curator's Note:
While the coloured editions demand attention, the KAWS "Chul-Su" (Monotone) commands respect. Released in 2025, this edition strips away the distraction of color to reveal the pure architectural form of the character. For the serious collector, the Monotone palette is the "canonical" KAWS aesthetic, connecting this new 2025 sculpt directly to the artist's earliest, most iconic grayscale works.
Why Choose Monotone? (Asset Analysis)
-
Sculptural Focus: Without vibrant colors to hide behind, the quality of the casting takes center stage. The interplay of shadow and light on the grey vinyl highlights the complex tooling of the Chul-Su figure in a way the coloured version cannot.
-
Interior Versatility: This is the designer’s choice. The Monotone finish integrates seamlessly into modern, minimalist, and industrial interiors. It is an art object that elevates a space rather than dominating it.
-
Next-Gen Provenance: Like its coloured counterpart, this piece is secured by the 2025 Certified NFC Chip. Your ownership history is stored digitally, making this a liquid asset that is impossible to forge.
Broker Verified: Surface & Chip
Grey vinyl is notoriously difficult to manufacture perfectly. Art Trader has filtered the allocation for you:
-
Surface Consistency: Mint. Monotone vinyl can sometimes show "swirl marks" from the factory injection process. We have inspected this unit under studio lighting to ensure a uniform, matte grey finish.
-
Digital Handshake: Verified. The NFC chip has been scanned and confirmed active. The digital certificate is ready to be transferred to your portfolio.
-
Box Condition: Sharp corners, suitable for archival storage.
