This hand-signed offset poster, limited to 300, documents the sculpture in its gallery installation and records the moment Murakami crossed from subcultural provocateur to the global contemporary canon. The example is unused and well preserved.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThe Piece\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCreated as the sculptural counterpoint to Hiropon, My Lonesome Cowboy magnified Murakami's strategy of forcing Western institutions to reconcile Japanese otaku sexuality with high-art legitimacy. The sculpture's audacious pose, impossible anatomical exaggeration and theatrical stance turned embarrassment into conceptual power. The poster records that performance not as scandal but as art-historical rupture: where Hiropon glimmers, Cowboy challenges.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePrinted in the same disciplined 500 × 500 mm format and limited to 300 signed examples, the poster keeps continuity with the trilogy's documentary logic. The offset process preserves the chromatic precision essential to Murakami's industrially controlled palette, while the installation image captures the sculpture's monumentality, scale and defiance within gallery space. More than a casual print, the edition documents institutional positioning, recording the Blum \u0026amp; Poe, Los Angeles exhibition context and the early trajectory of Murakami's American ascent.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMy Lonesome Cowboy followed Miss Ko2 and paralleled Hiropon, completing the early sculptural axis that placed Murakami at the intersection of pop erotics and institutional critique. By the early 2000s these works had become flashpoints in sale rooms and galleries, challenging hierarchies between manga-derived imagery and museum culture, and the documentation poster is accordingly an artifact of transition rather than ephemera.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe work speaks to collectors of the Murakami sculptural trilogy, Superflat historiography archives, early Kaikai Kiki documentation and institutional-level collections. Acquired alongside the Hiropon documentation poster, it forms a historically coherent diptych within Murakami's breakthrough period.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDetails\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"jp-details\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eArtist:\u003c\/strong\u003e Takashi Murakami\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTitle:\u003c\/strong\u003e My Lonesome Cowboy (Installation Poster)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEra:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1998 sculpture; 2001–2003 exhibition documentation context\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExhibition Context:\u003c\/strong\u003e Blum \u0026amp; Poe, Los Angeles; early Western institutional debut\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMedium:\u003c\/strong\u003e Offset lithographic print\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMeasurements:\u003c\/strong\u003e 500 × 500 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEdition:\u003c\/strong\u003e Limited to 300\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSignature:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hand-signed by the artist\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCondition\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"jp-grade\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eJaponista grade S\u003c\/strong\u003e · Unworn or as new, complete with original packaging.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnused and well preserved, in strong condition.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe condition supports its classification as an archival-grade edition rather than a decorative reproduction.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAuthenticity \u0026amp; Care\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHand-signed by Takashi Murakami from the edition of 300, documenting the Blum \u0026amp; Poe, Los Angeles installation of the 1998 sculpture.
