Gone - 2019
Released in 2019, GONE is a 14-inch vinyl figure depicting Companion carrying an unconscious BFF—a striking and somber moment in the KAWS narrative. Offered in grey, brown, and black open editions, it retailed for around $580 and quickly became one of the artist’s most poignant vinyl releases.
Retail Price: $580
Edition Size: Open
GONE debuted alongside the exhibition “KAWS: Companionship in the Age of Loneliness” at the National Gallery of Victoria, with the figure releasing on opening day, September 20, 2019, through the NGV store in-store and online. The NGV batch retailed for AUD 950 and tied directly to the museum presentation of the large-scale GONE sculpture, foregrounding the work’s themes of care and loss in both monumental and collectible form.
A wider online drop followed on KAWSONE on September 24, 2019 at 12 p.m. Eastern, priced at $580 and offered as an open edition in grey, brown, and black. The figure measures about 14 inches tall with a footprint around 14.5 inches wide, carrying the weight of the museum sculpture into a display-ready scale. While earlier releases explored solitude or humor, Gone offered something more intimate and direct, a meditation on loss and the silent responsibilities we sometimes bear.
