Bar Lights Upgrade: Kaws

$65 for three (red, purple, and green)

The Standard’s series of artist editions continues with Brooklyn-based artist, KAWS. This is a limited, but non-numbered edition of 1,000 sets that contain 3 bulbs each, of one bulb in each color: red, purple and green.

The 3 watt bulbs have a warm low glow. Dimensions of each globe is about 4.75″ x 2.25″ and they screw into any standard incandescent fixture. 120 volts. We love how they look on a light string using multiple sets. The bulbs are individually boxed with a KAWS and The Standard sticker and then wrapped again in an outer box that holds all three, also co-branded.

Stay tuned for more projects from KAWS by visiting www.standardculture.com.

“I love The Standard and the different projects they have been doing. When invited to create something I wanted to redesign something basic that could be found in every hotel room in the world so we decided to make a light bulb. I like the low colored glow it gives, similar to a candle” -KAWS

Artist and designer KAWS studied illustration at the School of Visual Arts in New York. He has had solo exhibitions at The Aldrich; Honor Fraser Gallery, Los Angeles; Galerie Emmanuel Perrotin, Paris and Miami; BAPE Gallery, Tokyo; Elms Lesters Painting Room, London; MU Art Foundation, Eindhoven, Netherlands, and Colette, Paris. KAWS is represented by Honor Fraser Gallery, Los Angeles; Gering & López Gallery, New York; and Galería Javier López, Madrid.

Currently just two shirts, one emblazoned with a heart and the other emblazoned with a pair of lungs, the organs have blue veins that glow when in contact with high levels of carbon monoxide.

The Limousines – Very Busy People

Very catchy tune, The Limousines music video de-construct as they construct their music video via Photoshop, QuickTime, Cinema, Photobooth and other software you’d be familiar with. Clever, The Limousines caught my eye with this pop tune.
