Mar 14, 2008 - True, actually I think on a few levels japan is a decade or so ahead of us when it comes to post-modern developments. Most western artists just try too hard in my opinion.

Jun 17, 2008 - part of my curriculem in art is to study the lonesome cowboy (i'm not joking it's compulsory) and also there's a girl who has milk coming out of her boobs

Sep 4, 2008 - The original statue at 2:40 Sold for 15 MILLION dollars at an art auction- most people only thought it would sell for a max of 4 million dollars. The person who bought the sculpture bought it by phone- you wouldn't really want to buy that sorta thing in person! :P

Jhiaxhus Says:

Sep 15, 2008 - Well I guess that cowboy ain't lonesome anymore.

Oct 8, 2008 - he's such a paradox. idk if he's criticizing or promoting consumerism.

moyga Says:

Nov 5, 2008 - His motives and concepts are much more complicated than how they might outwardly appear from a shallow glance.

OhHen Says:

Nov 8, 2008 - It is not "pop art". But an art movement indigenous to Japan. In the US, Gore Vidal has said something like advertising is the only true modern art we have today. ? something along those lines. As for Manga/Anime/comics/cartoons. I am glad more people in the US have become more accepting of these mediums. Back in the early/mid 90s I had thought how closed minded the US was for totally dismissing them as only kids stuff. Adults have been the largest buyers of comic books in US anyway.

OhHen Says:

Nov 8, 2008 - This type of thing was interesting to me. If memory serves, the work produced seems to almost embrace, if not mirror the corporate model. Which to me seemed pretty disgusting being that it is these artificial law created entities which have come to control our world (and governments, including 'democracies') and thus lives. But, maybe by reading more of Murakami's essays? I came to see hierarchy that is in Japanese culture. So,indigenous? I am not commenting on all aspects of works. discussion ?

OhHen Says:

Nov 8, 2008 - Disrespect for youth? Perhaps this is one hierarchy we can superflat?

friendsofthefruitsof Says:

Nov 9, 2008 - not so. watch the prices fall and some never recover. see people shedding murakostabi from thier collections.

friendsofthefruitsof Says:

Nov 9, 2008 - WARHOL and murakostabi is pretty well despised here in Tokyo.
