A comprehensive volume--overseen by the artist himself--on one of
the most renowned living artists today, Takashi Murakami. Takashi
Murakami is celebrated the world over for his deft blurring of high
and low art. In this volume, accompanying a major exhibition of his
work and the first in the Middle East, readers are immersed in the
unique way Murakami channels the ecstasy and anxiety of
contemporary culture.Conceived by the artist as a self-portrait in
the guise of a cartoon, Murakami - Ego illuminates the role of the
artist as a cipher and critic of pop phenomena as well as a mirror
of global networks of consumerism, interpretation, and exchange.
The book features some of the artist's most celebrated series,
including Kaikai Kiki Lots of Faces and Pom and Me. Murakami has
conceived of the exhibition itself as a work of art, creating new
modes of display that include sculptural pedestals with digital
animation, a circus tent that doubles as an indoor cinema, and an
impressive 300-foot-long painting, all of which are featured in the
book. In addition to an interview by curator Massimiliano Gioni,
Murakami will contribute writings on various works.
