NAME:Takashi Murakami
OCCUPATION:Artist, Japenese Pop Art/Manga
Recently I have discovered Takashi Murakami. He is an amazing Japenese artist who has had exibits in Germany, California, and of course New York. His style is called superflat, basically flat panes of color, which depict anime and manga drawings. He sells his actual artwork, but also sells everything from T-Shirts to plush dolls with his art on them (This includes Louis Vuitton handbags). Check him out...he's pretty awesome. Murakami takes something cute and turns it into something totaly unexpected (and sometimes grotesque). Look at the pics under 'Murakami'
