Takashi Murakami (村上 隆) is a prolific contemporary Japanese artist who works in both fine arts media - such as painting - as well as digital and commercial media. He blurs the boundaries between high and low art. He appropriates popular themes from mass media and pop culture, then turns them into thirty-foot sculptures, "Superflat" paintings, or marketable commercial goods such as figurines or phone caddies. From September till December 2010, Murakami exhibited some of his works at the Palace of Versailles in France, filling 15 rooms with his sculptures.
