Takashi Murakami Retrospective @ MOCA
The most internationally acclaimed artist to emerge from Asia in the postwar era, Takashi Murakami effortlessly navigates between the worlds of fine art and popular culture and is best known for his cartoon-like, “superflat” style. The Takashi Murakami retrospective is the most comprehensive, in-depth look to date, of the artist’s entire career.
This large-scale retrospective includes key selections that span the early 1990s to the present. More than 90 works in various media—painting, sculpture, installation, and film—will be installed in three sections, occupying over 20,000 square feet of exhibition space at The Geffen Contemporary at MOCA.
From 29 October 2007 to 11 February 2008 at MOCA.

He is a COMIC BOOK ARTIST, that HAS NOT ONE SINGLE COMIC BOOK. He switched from high cultural to contemporary art ( low-culture, advertisement ) , the fact THE YOUNG PEOPLE RESPECT CARTOONS. There is nothing special about him asides, that he does what many GRAPHIC DESIGNERS do but with a paint brush.
Nice work, I mean really nice work. However, I wish people would shaddup about him being this and that. There is many art students out there. However all he did was sellout his want to become a “real artist” to become a well known artist. He did not set any standard in arts at all. All he did was put LOONEY TUNES on a bookbag, and made it look like the Mona Lisa.
He is like Stan Lee, without Spidey man.
