Reflecting KAWS’ influential approach to contemporary printmaking, Blame Game (Single Plate) (2014) is a color screenprint measuring 35 × 23 inches (88.9 × 58.4 cm), produced in a limited edition of 100. The work explores themes of emotion, popular culture, and human interaction through the artist’s recognisable visual language. Its scarce edition, precise craftsmanship, and established market presence make it an exceptional opportunity for collectors of contemporary art.
Blame Game (Single Plate) is a compelling print work by KAWS that showcases the artist’s ability to combine familiar imagery with deeper social and emotional themes. First introduced through KAWS’ studio and gallery edition practice, the work was created as a fine art print rather than a street graffiti piece. Unlike KAWS’ early public interventions on advertisements and urban surfaces, Blame Game (Single Plate) reflects his mature period of controlled printmaking, where composition, color, and edition quality are carefully developed.
The artwork explores ideas of accountability, conflict, and human relationships through KAWS’ recognizable visual language. By presenting familiar characters and expressive forms, the piece invites viewers to consider how people process emotions, assign responsibility, and navigate social connections. Themes of communication, vulnerability, nostalgia, and contemporary culture are central to the work’s impact.
Collectors appreciate Blame Game (Single Plate) for its place within KAWS’ important print portfolio. Its limited edition status, strong visual identity, and connection to the artist’s broader character-based works make it a desirable acquisition for collectors seeking accessible yet significant examples of KAWS’ practice.
At ArtLife Gallery, we view Blame Game (Single Plate) as a refined example of KAWS’ storytelling through multiples. Related to his Companion, Chum, and other print editions, it reflects the artist’s ability to translate emotional narratives into highly collectible contemporary artworks with enduring market appeal.
