Japanese artist Takashi Murakami has an upcoming exhibition at the Brooklyn Museum. He most recently became well known to the American public at large for his work on Graduation, Kanye West’s latest attempt to elicit a chance from The Man. The show will contain more than ninety of Murakami’s pieces:
Among the works included in this large-scale survey tracing the trajectory of Murakami’s artistic development are many of his acclaimed sculpture figures including the 23-foot-high Tongari-kun (2003–4); Miss Ko2 (1997), a long-legged waitress who has become one of the artist’s signature characters; and Hiropon (1997), a Japanese girl jumping a rope created by milk spurting from her gargantuan breasts.
The show begins April 5th and runs through July 13th.
