Takashi Murakami (Japanese, 1962) AND THEN X6 ( VERMILLION : THE SUPER FLAT METHOD ) - 2013 Offset lithograph on paper Signed and numbered in black ink lower right "Murakami 88/700" Accompanied by original box 19 3/4 by 19 3/4 inches The playful Takashi Murakami always delights, with figures inspired by Japanese comics and animation, coquettishly batting eyelashes at their viewers. Murakami's prowess with color is best seen when all versions of this print are shown together—yellows, blues, greens, and candy colored reds enhance and change an image that has become as recognizable as Andy Warhol's soup cans, thanks to the almost cult status of his “Mr. DOB” character. Murakami exhibits internationally with Gagosian Gallery, and his work can be found in numerous prominent collections, including the Museum of Modern Art, New York; the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art; and the Walker Art Center, Minneapolis. $1,000-1,500 Categories: TAKASHI MURAKAMI
