Takashi Murakami

Tuesday, 10 February 2009 - Thursday, 9 April 2009

Gagosian Gallery (Davies Street), 17-19 Davies Street, Mayfair , W1K 3DE

Exhibitions: , Art, Sculpture, Painting, Gallery, Design

How Much: Free!
New work by artist/brand Takashi Murakami is always likely to cause excitement, and the paintings that go on display this month at Gagosian are no exception.

Murakami is known for the style known as Superflat - kind of Pop Art/animé fusion, and this new body of work seeks to push the style into deeper, darker waters.

An interesting venture towards the political, or a radical reinterpretation of the classical vanitas portrait? Who knows.
