“Doko ni mo Ikanaide” (Don’t Go Anywhere) by Mr. of Kaikai Kiki: a square offset print, 68 cm (26.8 in) a side, from an edition of 300, still sealed and accompanied by its original delivery note.
The Piece
Mr. (born 1969) joined Takashi Murakami’s Hiropon Factory in the mid-1990s and remained at its core as it grew into Kaikai Kiki, the studio and gallery behind the Superflat movement. His paintings set wide-eyed anime children in the ordinary streets of Tokyo, and they have been shown at Galerie Perrotin in Paris and Miami, the Musée d’art contemporain de Lyon and the Fondation Cartier in Paris.
Here a schoolboy in a black uniform pushes a girl in a straw hat along a seaside path in a wheelchair, through a riot of summer flowers, with a white railing and the open sea behind them. The title turns a bright, sunlit picture into something tender and uneasy, the kind of emotional double note that runs through Mr.’s best paintings.
Kaikai Kiki editions remain the natural way into Mr.’s work, and a sealed example with its paperwork is the one to own.
Sheet 68 cm (26.8 in) by 68 cm (26.8 in). Every measurement is taken by hand, with the piece laid flat and the tape read by eye, so please allow a gentle margin of about 1–3 cm (0.5–1 in) for the natural give of fabric, handwork and the human hand.
