The "superflat" vision of Takashi Murakami merges pop culture with traditional Japanese aesthetics, establishing him as a leading figure in contemporary art. His vibrant and engaging style is underpinned by a profound understanding of historical Japanese art. This volume showcases key works by Murakami alongside masterpieces from several centuries, organized according to concepts from his mentor, art historian Nobuo Tsuji. Featured artists include Kawanabe Kyosai, Soga Shohaku, and Kano Eino, among others. The beautifully illustrated selections from the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, juxtapose old and new, enhancing our appreciation of both and revealing how contemporary art is part of a continuous lineage. Born in 1962, Murakami is the founder of Kaikai Kiki, an art production company in Tokyo with a New York studio. He was the first to earn a PhD in Nihonga at the Tokyo National University of Fine Arts and has held numerous exhibitions worldwide, including a significant solo show at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston in 2001. Known for collaborations with brands like Louis Vuitton and artists such as Kanye West, he was named one of TIME magazine's "100 Most Influential People" in 2008. More recently, he has ventured into film and animation, releasing his first live-action film in 2013 and an animated series in 2017.
