Takashi Murakami @ MOCA @ The Geffen Contemporary



Japan's answer to Andy Warhol and Jeff Koons. A walking, talking creation of Pop culture, he's an artist entrepreneur who ignores yesterday's boundaries between high and low art, production and consumption. This mega-exhibition will offer 90 paintings, sculptures, installations and films, not to mention a fully functioning shop stocked with handbags and accessories designed by the artist for Louis Vuitton

He's the dude that did Kanye's Graduation Album Cover. Anyway I think he's a dope artist and I'm definitely going to try and check this out if I have time. It's only $8 @ The Geffen Contemporary in Los Angeles and runs through February 11th
