Artist
Takashi Murakami
Born 1962 in Tokyo, Murakami established the Superflat theory, which re-conceptualizes the origins of traditional Japanese painting and contemporary art through the visual theories of anime and manga. He has created a number of characters that reflect Otaku culture, such as Miss Ko² and DOB, as well as highly kitsch sculptures and extremely two-dimensional paintings that are the polar opposites of Western perspective paintings. In addition, through his collaborations with Louis Vuitton and his recent activities involving street culture and contemporary ceramics, he continues to attract an international audience that transcends the boundaries of contemporary art.
