HOW ANIME BECAME HIGH ART
You might not know Takashi Murakami personally, but his Kanye West covers are familiar to every hip-hop fan, his Louis Vuitton bags have become some of the brand's most popular items, and his skateboards are recognizable to every Supreme fan.
Inspired by anime, Murakami founded the Superflat movement, which combined classical and contemporary Japanese culture, and transformed his artwork into a mass-market product. His exhibitions are now held around the world, including at the Palace of Versailles, where no Japanese artist had exhibited before.
Today you will hear the amazing story of a very extraordinary man who not only had a profound influence on art but also conquered the world.
