Takashi Murakami is an contemporary artist that specializes in a style he coined superflat. Somehow, I envisioned women with nassatall (no ass at all). Superflat emcompasses high and low art, postwar Japanese culture and colors. Lot and lots of colors! Murakami designed the cover art for Kanye's graduation album. As the late great Seinfield would say, "What's the deal with rappers and Japanese artist." I suppose the same reason that designers Marc Jacobs and Louis Vuitton have acquired his distinct superflat style.
You can check out the exhibit Takashi in Superflat Wonderland until December 8, 2013 at the Plateau Museum of Art. The price is 5 bucks for adults and 4 for the chikadees. Although, you may not want them to see an exposed vagina being that autobot pussy (if you go you'll get the reference) is eye level with an eight year old kid. I saw a few mothers putting the blinders over their children's eyes. To get there (the museum, not the vagina) take City Hall exit 8 and walk straight until you see the picture below.
Here are a few of his works.
And the visuals for Kanye's Good Morning video by Takashi Murakami.
