Drawing from street culture, high art, and traditional Japanese painting, Murakami takes the contemporary art trend of mixing high and low to an unprecedented level (critics call him the new Warhol), producing original paintings and sculptures as well as mass-produced consumer objects such as toys, books, and most famously, a line of handbags for Louis Vuitton. A committed supporter and spokesperson for Japanese artists and a powerful commentator on postwar culture and society, Murakami has organized influential exhibitions of Japanese art as well as a biannual art fair in Tokyo. Murakami has positioned himself as a new type of artist for the twenty-first century: a hybrid of creator, entrepreneur, and cultural ambassador.In conjunction with the first major retrospective of his work, Murakami traces Murakami''s global impact socially, culturally, and art historically. Essays focus on Murakami''s early works, which were based on a social critique of Japan''s rampant consumerism; the development of his characters; his work with anime, fantasy; otaku culture and his engagement with global pop culture. Representing output from original works of art to mass-produced multiples, the catalogue also considers the implications of Murakami''s working methods within the tradition of the Western avant-garde." -- publisher''s statement.

MURAKAMI accompanied Japanese contemporary artist Takashi Murakami's 2007-2009 retrospective of the same name. The exhibition garnered widespread attention from international audiences at its stops in Los Angeles, Brooklyn, Frankfurt, and Spain for hosting (amongst other attractions) a fully-functional Louis Vuitton boutique. Murakami excels at blurring these lines between fine art and the consumable, a movement he's coined "Superflat." Influenced by the blend of art and commerce that transpired within Japan's post-war economy, "Superflat" identifies postmodern art which draws inspiration from the two-dimensional color planes most prevalent in Japanese manga and anime. In order to make his work succeed in a society which already combines entertainment with art at both "high" and "low" levels, Murakami gained followers overseas before returning to his home country. His career began in 1994 after receiving a grant through the Asian Cultural Council to work at the PS1 Studio at New York City's MoMA, learning to repackage subcultural concepts as "high-art." Upon his return to Japan, Murakami would use these aesthetics to probe deeply into the fracture between "otaku" (that is, an American obsession with Japanese anime, manga, and culture) and Japanese people living in the wake of atomic bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. His bright, smiling flowers are one example; while they may have a cheery facade, the flowers represent the complex emotions and trauma inflicted during WWII. Today, Murakami's work is internationally unmistakable, having fortified his position in the art world throughout the 2000s via celebrity collaborations with artists and brands such as Marc Jacobs, Kanye West, Kid Cudi, and, of course, Louis Vuitton. MURAKAMI testifies to the growth of a great artist whose impact will have deep reverberations beyond modern art. 1389882. Shelved Dupont Bookstore.
