"MURAKAMI X ABLOH"
Murakami’s latest collaboration is an exhibition with designer Virgil Abloh. "Future history' Combines a mixture of sculpture and painting that merges both artists’ styles and trademarks as a comment on our current culture in the hopes that we can then artistically mediate on our future. “We want to see the newest things. That is because we want to see the future, even if only momentarily,” says Murakami in the show’s press release. “It is the moment in which, even if we don’t completely understand what we have glimpsed, we are nonetheless touched by it. This is what we have come to call art.”
I enjoyed the exhibition and it was interesting to see two such huge names come together to collaborate however I personally didn't feel it was anything new or exciting, it was very much Murakamis work with Off-White logo slapped over the top.
