The warm companion to Shangri-La Blue: Murakami's smiling flowers in magenta, rose and gold, filling a square sheet to every edge.
The Piece
Pink and red heads crowd the surface, broken by white, yellow and violet flowers whose faces grin, gape and squint. Seen from across a room the sheet reads as a single blaze of colour; close to, every flower carries its own expression, the double reading that has made the motif Murakami's signature since the 1990s.
The sheet measures about 68 cm square, is signed by hand and numbered from an edition of 300, and is offered unframed from a smoke free home.
Takashi Murakami in Print
Takashi Murakami founded the Superflat movement at the turn of the century, folding the flat picture plane of Edo painting into the bright language of anime and advertising. His studio Kaikai Kiki issues the paintings in signed offset editions, usually of 300, printed in Japan on heavy stock with a silver or gold ground where the original carries one. Each sheet is signed and numbered by hand in the margin, and these editions have become the most widely collected route into his work.
