As Takashi Murakami acknowledges, the term “superflat” refers to the fluid interrelation prevalent in a flattened age, reflecting on the aspects of our art and culture, in trends and lifestyle. In 2003 Murakami has unveiled to the world with Louis Vuitton, the iconic collection of leather goods rendered in pop colors; deriving from which his “superflat” series - an international splash reaching beyond museums into the fashion world. The 2007 Museum of Contemporary Art exhibit in Los Angeles, following the entrepreneurial collaboration of the two giants, has marked a long sustaining legacy across the world of art and commerce.
EYE LOVE SUPERFLAT (Lot 119) obscures the distinction and connotation between commercial culture and high art; where the artist's trademark anime-eyes motif interspersed with the LV monogram and classic four-pointed flowers. Vivid colors of the luxurious logo pop on the black canvas, creating a psychedelic pattern that is dazzling to the eye. As a pop artist well versed in the commercial distribution and dissemination of his art, Murakami has activated a process of crossbreeding, through which he was able to infuse the fashion brand with his own artistic language, in order to recognize the ideal of “superflat” aesthetics in the context of contemporary Japanese art.
