Our KAWSxKOZIK 500 Years Later Companion gets a little Hype
A few days ago two of the biggest Hype blogs around, Slamxhype and HighSnobiety, ran some coverage on one of our favorite pieces here in the gallery, the Frank Kozik customized KAWS 5 Year Later Companion “500 Years Later Companion”. This gorgeous piece is long sold, unfortunately, but we are still exhibiting it in our gallery so send us an email if you want to check it out!

More sneaks at Martin Osuna’s Musashinto Tech!
We’re a little over two weeks out until TAG’s first gallery show “Netzwerk and Mushashinto Tech”, and the sneak peeks keep rolling in. The latest is a pair of shots from Martin Osuna, showing off his resin Mushashinto Warriors along with their mini (4″) counterparts.
Daniel Goffin’s Worlds Smallest Blindbox Toys
Here is an exclusive picture of Daniel Goffin’s miniature capsule sculptures for his “Netzwerk” show at TAG. Daniel is casting these in isomalt, a sugar substitute, and encasing them in a gelatin capsule! Totally edible, but not entirely recommended. Click the picture for a closer view!

Carlos Enriquez-Gonzalez and “Toy Art” on BBC FOUR
Steve Agin talks about Toy Art at the Philips de Pury NOW auction for the “Man With The Golden Gavel” special on BBC Four. We see lots of our favorites in the clip, including work from Bob Conge, KAWS, Bwana Spoons, and more. Carlos’s “Brain Vagina” is featured, along with a short glimpse of his Astro Boy.
If you’re in the UK, you can view the whole program here. If you’re not, you’re out of luck like us. If anyone has a copy or can get a copy, please contact us at info@toyartgallery.com!
Yoskay Yamamoto
Yoskay Yamamoto came by the gallery today to add some fantastic pieces to our collection. The new work includes three beautiful pearlescent custom Koibitos with scarves, an A/P of his “untitled” wall plaque, and a wonderful multi-piece sculpture entitled “Home is where the Heart is”. Yoskay is as adept at sculpture as he is at painting, and his soft ethereal style translates wonderfully to a three-dimensional medium.
Here’s hoping we’ll see more of Yoskay’s work in the gallery in the near future!
