It’s your birthday, Doug. But you may already know this. Happy birthday, son.
Congratulations go here or in the comments below.
You wish to stay at the surface, not to get drowned in deep waters, aware that dwelling makes too many peoples lives miserable? You wish to ressemble the sunny heirs, who make up my friends and enjoy pleasures and eye candy, making you repellant to deeper meaning? Be carried- even tossed through life like a flat stone cast amongst the water surface? Have no fear of brain injury as so many athletes have to be aware of?. You want to hold a job at age 85 as does Pope Benedikt XVI (Joseph Aloisius Ratzinger)? Inochi
After two decades of restraining myself from indulging in what the art world had to offer caused by a complete lack of interest (besides some concepts Jeff Koons came up with during my time in NCY), art has lost its punch, much like advertising, and I had lost my appetite in living a corporate life. Art was even more obvious shut down than economy or politics, or should I say turned off, detached or disconnected? Manga blood by Masashi Okamoto
Jerry Saltz explains the discovery of Takashi Murakami within the context of art legacy, by means of the Andy Warhol myth, which is as overrated as any myth waiting to be de-demonized for good and has very little to do with what drives our lives and our economy. Takashi Murakami lacks a perception of boundaries (between art and commerce). He does what is being valued by businesses as being holistically. Murakami goes to work with a broad, integrated perspective, necessary to attain the best solution. Something Murakami may have retained from being a child. This is how eye candy is created. Feel encouraged to take it a step further over at Ana Andjelic’s entry “the evolution of cute“.
The Weekend magazine of German paper, the Süddeutsche Zeitung from April 15, No. 15 offers a chart, making the success factors graspable at first sight. (c)Murakami is as much an accident as are most global business successes. Global branding of accidents such as Google, Pinterest and tumblr took less time to develop with even greater momentum, it took ten years of Murakami’s time to become the world’s best investment in art.
In his brilliant video, Ben Lewis introduces a fellowship of young artists such as Masashi Okamoto with Manga blood. Murakami steals like an artist from the new aesthetic of today’s world culture awaiting its discoverers and further explorers.
(c)Murakami tapestry
With dark vision Murakami caters to the expectations of the art industry with its dominating high brow feuilleton, whishing for deep insights and critical viewpoints. When a museum Kurator sees cotton candy she also sees tooth decay. Murakami recognizes patterns and turns them around instantly. A well tempered talent not ever hesitent at making instant best use of what is so very obvious. His twitter account is @Takashipom_En. Cabin porn, food porn… you get the idea. Iconography, Emoticons, symbols available to us all though the system fonts of our computers: ❉❖✽●❀ His inability to draw a line between term worlds while having a stable hand with categories, catch phrases and key words, besides being easy going with allowing each pot a matching lid. Prompt collaboration with proven brands such as Louis Vuitton as well as rising brands such as Kanye West.
The overbearing joy for the contemporary obvious (the underrated dominance of digital athletes and their worlds play a big part in this) has lead to friends of New York’s art collector Adam Lindemann’s kids stand in line to sleep over in the kids room covered with Murakami tapestry.

the first virtual shopping store opens in Korea, all shelves are LCD screens. wow. via @andjelicaaa User choose their desired items by touching the LCD screen and checkout at the counter in the end to have all their ordered stuff readily packed in bags. Find a video of yet another virtual venture by British multinational grocery retailer Tesco here. Both, the Korean virtual store and Tesco Homeplus virtual subway store in South Korea aim at making shopping easier on the busy Korean people. Exhausted from day’s work they spend less time with daily shopping chores. While selecting their products with a touch of the lcd screen replica, the real products get packed in bags at checkout. Consumer and retailer profit from shorter process times, the later from increased traffic processing.
Johnny Depp, Michelle Pfeiffer, Helena Bonham Carter, Jackie Earle Haley, Jonny Lee Miller, Eva Green, Chloe Moretz, Bella Heathcote, Thomas McDonell, Gulliver McGrath. The return to blonde. An incredible turn of event.
