Takashi Murakami Listed Exhibitions (66 Kb) Takashi Murakami Bibliography (88 Kb) A lightning rod between different cultural valencies (high/low, ancient/modern, oriental/occidental), Takashi Murakami has stated that the artist is someone who understands the borders between worlds and who makes an effort to know them. With his distinctive "Superflat" style and ethos, which employs highly refined classical Japanese painting techniques to depict a super-charged mix of Pop, animé and otaku content within a flattened representational picture-plane, he moves freely within an ever-expanding field of aesthetic issues and cultural inspirations. Murakami lives and works in Tokyo. Artiste transmédia et féministe. Météorite narratif du BIO ART. Son oeuvre questionne le statut du CORPS dans la société. Ses sculptures, HYBRIDATIONS et autoportraits réinterprètent le rôle des nouvelles technologies.

Ron Mueck's art: Big, not clever

No, this is not the prelude to a rave review that goes on to explain how the visceral realism of Mueck's models disturbed and moved me to my very gut. The sickness I felt was at the prospect of having to waste time, and words, on this flimsy gimcrack charade, on having to walk around with a straight face and pretend this is an exhibition. Of art. "In London, Erica Bolton has been responsible for securing excellent publicity," say the galleries' directors in their foreword to the catalogue, and they are right to be grateful. Mueck's museum show comes garlanded like a Triumph of Caesar. I'm putting my email at the end of this piece so you can tell me, if you like Ron Mueck, what it is it you like about him. Let me reiterate, in case I see the previous paragraph quoted somewhere, that I don't believe a word of it. Now go back and look at Mueck. Jonathan22@btinternet.com.
