Art Trader Curator's Note:
This is the graduation point for the serious KAWS collector. KAWS - Calm Night (Bronze) represents the artist's transition from street culture to fine art history. Cast in solid bronze, this piece carries a physical and historical weight that vinyl simply cannot replicate. It is an intimate, introspective work designed not for a crowded shelf, but for a solitary spotlight on a executive desk or private library.
Why This Is a "Legacy" Acquisition:
-
The Material of History: Bronze is the medium of museums. While vinyl degrades over decades, bronze endures for centuries. Acquiring this piece is a play on permanence. It is an heirloom asset intended to be passed down, not flipped.
-
The "Power" Scale: At 138mm long, this is a "cabinet piece." In the art world, small, heavy, and intricate sculptures often command higher respect for their density of value. It is a subtle, sophisticated flex that signals "insider" status to anyone who recognizes the form.
-
Strictly Limited (250 Edition): With only 250 pieces in existence globally, this is significantly scarcer than standard releases. The accompanying Signed & Numbered COA provides the irrefutable paper trail required for high-end asset management.
Broker Verified: Foundry & Provenance
Bronze requires expert handling. Art Trader has inspected this specific lot for foundry perfection:
-
Patina Inspection: Flawless. The bronze surface shows no signs of improper oxidation or handling oils. The finish is consistent with the artist's original foundry specifications.
-
Engraving Clarity: Sharp. The artist’s signature and edition number engraved on the underside are deep and legible—the primary identifier of a genuine bronze casting.
-
Complete Presentation: Includes the original Wooden Box. This is not just packaging; it is part of the artwork's provenance. Our unit includes the box in excellent condition, ensuring the full value of the set is preserved.
