KAWS

May 22 through October 24, 2027

Both iconic and iconoclastic, KAWS takes over NYBG with bold interventions of nature that put monumental sculptures front and center against the living canvas of the Garden, creating unexpected moments for long-time fans and those new to the artist’s work. Set out to find awe-inspiring scenes both inside our galleries and across our 250 acres, and see KAWS’ boundary-defying work within the beauty and complexity of the natural world.
