Painted in 2004, #KAWS‘ playfully irreverent 'UNTITLED (FATAL GROUP)' is exemplary of the artist’s signature practice of seamlessly blending popular culture and fine art. The present work refigures the cast of 'The Fat Albert Show' with the artist's signature crosses over the eyes. Alluding to the historic genre of the group portrait, KAWS interprets the Fat Albert cast in his own distinct visual language.
