Be@rbrick is more than a collectible – it is a global cultural phenomenon that moves seamlessly between art, fashion, and popular culture.
Since its launch by Medicom Toy in 2001, Be@rbrick has become an icon of contemporary art, with the figure’s simple bear shape serving as a canvas for collaborations with some of the world’s most influential artists, designers, and brands.

Each Be@rbrick is a miniature artwork, often released in limited editions that quickly become highly sought-after collectibles. Through collaborations ranging from streetwear giants like Nike and Supreme to artists such as KAWS and the Andy Warhol Foundation, Be@rbrick has established itself as a bridge between collector culture and contemporary art.

At Mankovsky Gallery, we see Be@rbrick as a natural part of our curated selection – objects that capture the spirit of the times and demonstrate how art can take shape in unexpected ways.

KAWS

Born in 1974 in Jersey City, New Jersey, Brian Donnelly, known professionally as KAWS, is a multi-faceted New York-based artist. KAWS began his career as a graffiti artist in Jersey City and in the early 1990s moved to New York to pursue a formal education in the arts. KAWS has been revolutionizing the art world for the past 20 years and become one of the leading contemporary artists in the world. Art critics have consistently compared KAWS to historic masters Jean-Michel Basquiat and Keith Haring, whose careers also began on the street. KAWS’ thoughtful interplay with imagery associated with consumer products and global brands also lead art critics to compare him to Andy Warhol and Jeff Koons.
