Page 3 - Designer Toys Collection Catalog

Dear Collector(s),

Collecting designer toys has become a strong passion of the gallery and we herewith proudly present the
catalogue of our gallery collection that we have been building up during the last few years.
Designer toys, also called art toys, are toys and collectibles created by artists and designers that are either self-
produced or made by independent toy companies, typically in very limited editions. Artists use a variety of
materials, such as ABS plastic, vinyl, wood, metal, latex, plush, and resin. Creators often have backgrounds in
graphic design, illustration, or fine art, but many accomplished toy artists are self-taught.
The first designer toys appeared in the 1990s in Hong Kong and Japan and the world leading designer toy
producers are Kidrobot, Medicom, Fools Paradise and Mighty Jaxx.
American artist Brian Donnelly also known as ‘Kaws’ and German artists Mark LandWehr and Sven Waschk also
known as ‘Coarse’ are, amongst others, highly collected names in the world of designer toys.
Most designer toys have been released in a limited edition and are nowadays often presented by art galleries
and during contemporary art auctions.
Enjoy our renewed collection and please contact us at info@artitledcontemporay.com if you would be further
interested in one of these little heroes.

Hartelijke groet,
Kind regards,

Hans van Enckevort
