在今年 9 月 20 日正式开放之前，HYPEBEAST 抢先走进位于澳洲墨尔本 National Gallery of Victoria 美术馆举办的 KAWS 大型艺展「COMPANIONSHIP IN THE AGE OF LONELINESS」。这个龐大的展览呈现了 KAWS 多样化的作品，包括一系列画作、壁画、大型雕塑、装置艺术，以及他的时尚品牌的合作单品。该展览的亮点绝对就是 KAWS 迄今为止最大的 Companion 青铜制雕像。

该展览分为四个不同的主题：「Public Interventions」、「Iconography」、「Order And Chaos」和「Companionship」。详细展出的内容像是 KAWS 早期的公车站广告、普普艺术帆布画作、以及多件真人尺寸的公仔，如高耸的《ACCOMPLICE》（2010）雕塑。

「KAWS 代表了一个人跨领域，以混合与联乘方式工作的范本。他的工作替社交媒体的成瘾性及社会内部和社会之间的分裂提供了解药和反驳。」National Gallery of Victoria 在一份声明中说：「他提醒我们，我们需要彼此，人们应该尽可能地努力生活，以对抗这个恐惧和仇恨遍布的『孤独时代』。」

展览中有一个专门为孩子准备的主题「PLAYTIME」。该部分向年幼的游客介绍 KAWS 独特的视觉语言。在整个展览空间中，艺术家的「BFF」角色出现在许多装置、壁纸和影像中，欢迎孩子们探索各种空间，参与关于 BFF 和友谊的活动。

National Gallery of Victoria Design Store Pop-Up 期间限定店将推出完整的周边商品，其中包括粉红／灰色和全黑版本的《GONE》Companion 公仔。该系列将于澳大利亚东部标准时间 9 月 20 日上午 10 点同时在网路店舖和实体门市上架。有兴趣的各位不妨查看 National Gallery of Victoria 的官方网站了解更多资讯，亦可关注：
