				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a title="Takashi Murakami" href="http://www.kumicontemporary.com/artwork/takashi-murakami.html">Takashi Murakami</a> is unmistakably the Godfather of Japan&#8217;s contemporary art scene. Murakami&#8217;s Superflat direction lead the way for a new era in post-modern art in Japan and he is now widely regarded one of the most powerful art figures in the World &#8211; listed 14th in Art Review&#8217;s Power 100 in 2011.</p>
<p>Maurakami parallels his Suplerflat style to the flattening of Japan&#8217;s social culture, creating a fusion of high and low art &#8211; art available to the masses with little distinction between the two. Having worked with Andy Warhol, Takashi Murakami&#8217;s neo-pop art style has become infamous with the legacy that Warhol left behind.</p>
<h2>Takashi Murakami Art</h2>
<p>Acknowledged as one of the most hard working artists in the World, Takashi Murakami&#8217;s efforts are forever pushing the boundaries of <a title="Contemporary Japanese Art" href="http://www.kumicontemporary.com">Contemporary Japanese art</a>. Its not hard to see why Murakami&#8217;s works have mass appeal &#8211; stunning and intricately painted, Takashi Murakami&#8217;s art provides a plethora of visual treats. Young boys and girls in Japan decorate their schoolbags and bedrooms with Murakami&#8217;s toys. Key-rings and plush toys carry the Kawaii appeal &#8211; daintily cute and innocent, they are available for pocket money at character shops across Tokyo. Nowadays you cannot venture too far without seeing aspiring fashionable females carrying one of Murakami&#8217;s most iconic works right beside them. Murakami&#8217;s design of the Louis Vuitton handbag created a modern design icon &#8211; the most successful ever collaboration between an artist and a fashion designer.</p>
<p>Takashi Murakami&#8217;s art works hold an even greater appeal. They symbolise an new era of Japan. A Japanese culture that held little identity after the second World War has been reinvented in a kaleidoscope of colourful flowers, masturbating cowboys and oversized golden Buddhas. Japan has embraced Takashi Murakami&#8217;s vision and it now has a new ambassador in the art world.</p>
<p>Takashi Murakami&#8217;s exhibitions have mesmerised audiences from all around the World. 2010 took Murakami to Europe producing two stunning shows in Italy and France. Murakami&#8217;s exhibition held in the Palace of Versailles represented his first major retrospective in France. 15 rooms filled with Takashi Murakami&#8217;s often controversial but gloriously beautiful collection of oversized sculptures, contrasting vividly with the Palace&#8217;s treasures to produced a spectacle which received worldwide critical acclaim. Takashi Murakami&#8217;s 2011 solo exhibition in London&#8217;s Gargosian Gallery provided an explosion of sexual energy and erroticism in true Murakami style. Dazzling audiences with life-size manga sculptures, an oversized golden penis sitting beside cute character cut-outs and surrounded by a vast collection of beautiful prints, Murakami is far from predicable.</p>
<p><a title="Takashi Murakami Prints" href="http://www.kumicontemporary.com/artwork/takashi-murakami.html">Takashi Murakami prints</a> are printed on vivid lithograph paper &#8211; marvelously colourful and unassumingly large in size. Murakami&#8217;s prints provide a window into the spectacular mind of an artist who will go down in history as one of the most foreword thinking and innovative to have graced the contemporary art world.</p>
