Again with the clearance finds. These are the replacements for my beloved well-worn Zara superflats. I still love their predecessors best, but at well under $20, I couldn't say no.

WOW!
THE "Murakami" show at the Geffen Contemporary at the Museum of Contemporary Art doesn't even open until Monday, but the madness has already started.
Not over exhibit or gala tickets, over handbags. The museum's press office has been fielding calls for weeks about the limited-edition Neverfull totes. They go on sale Monday at the Louis Vuitton boutique created as part of the retrospective of the Japanese artist Takashi Murakami, whose fame skyrocketed when he collaborated with the French luxury goods brand on logo designs incorporating his Superflat style.
The sturdy tote comes in three sizes ($875 to $965) in the traditional Louis Vuitton Damier canvas with natural-colored leather handles. On the side is an oversized "LV" in psychedelic colors, emblazoned with a pair of hands and smiling flowers. This singular image is even more distinctive than the all-over logo and cherry prints the artist created for the luxury goods firm a few years back, elevating this bag even more into the realm of high art.
There are drawstrings on either side of the bag, and a strap that clips across the top to keep belongings safe. The lining is a cheery-pink canvas, and the inside pocket is big enough for a cellphone and BlackBerry. It's a cute knock-around-town-on-a-Saturday bag, though it would be nice if there were feet on the base to keep it from getting dirty.
The same "LV" emblazons a $255 circular coin purse. Too small even for credit cards, it's almost useless unless you just want it as a souvenir.
The best bet may be the agenda, which comes in three styles ($500 to $700), because it features a new Murakamicharacter, Chibi Kinoko, which means "little mushroom," making it a true collector's piece. The calendar pages are replaceable, which means you could use it for years to come .
All of the items are exclusive to the exhibition store and, yes, quantities are limited, though Vuitton won't say how limited. So you'd better get in line.

Reseña artística publicada en la Revista Taller 5
Manga Pop art
Liz Mogollón es una artista entregada a su arte, quien afirma que desde que tiene uso de razón ama la pintura y todas las expresiones artísticas, que con el tiempo se volvieron una necesidad; es una mujer innovadora que tiene curiosidad de explorar nuevas facetas en la pintura y en todas las artes. Dice que la influencia es de familia, debido a su infancia rodeada por el ambiente artístico de su padre, el Maestro Mogollón quien con 30 años de experiencia y producciones a nivel mundial le dio un toque a su desarrollo, este ambiente de arte fue el detonante, esto a pesar de que sus padres nunca la presionaron para que ella siguiera este estilo de vida.
Estudio artes plásticas y con el tiempo viajo especializándose en el estilo Manga Pop, dice siempre haberse sentido atraída hacia el estilo manga, en donde ha buscado trabajarlo de una forma distinta, creando nuevos conceptos, traspasando barreras y sacando lo típico del manga de su contexto creando otro tipo de ambientes, teniendo un manejo de color diferente, trabajando una fusión de arte japonés Superflat del artista Takashi Murakami en donde también ha hecho uso de los colores planos y la superposición de capas.
En su segunda participación en el Sofa esta artista colombiana llego con gran entusiasmo, con una propuesta de Manga Pop, buscando tanto la expansión propia como cultural, teniendo la oportunidad de conocer otros artistas, personas del medio, cosplayers, además de ver este salón como un medio para conocer y entender otros estilos, así como compartir el propio con otras personas. Pues ella ve su arte como algo poderoso, con un campo de acción muy amplio, en el que se pueden expandir los conocimientos y generar aplicaciones hacia las áreas del diseño, es una forma de crear nuevas cosas, ilustrar personajes, aplicando la influencia oriental al estilo occidental. Como consejo para los diseñadores cree que la pasión por la ilustración y las artes crean un empujón hacia la investigación y el estudio, foco que considera de gran importancia. Par ella la constancia, disciplina y perseverancia son la clave del éxito, uno que no puede llegar si sacrificios y entrega — en Taller 5.
An impromptu trip to Chicago to see my favorite artist's work--Takashi Murakami's The Octopus Eats its Own Leg exhibition (2017). It was, without question, the best show I've ever seen.

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.

Thanks for your visit.
I found a village containing two blacksmiths. In the smiths, there were chests containing saplings and enough iron for a bucket. This provides unlimited wood and cobble (I haven't made any cobble yet). I walled off the town and put 'cages' over all the farms to protect from slimes. I encountered enough sheep to make a bed on my way to this village. I built up another village similarly before this, but died without a bed and was unable to locate it again.

In Love, Thieves and Fear Make Ghosts: old tales and new forms of Japanese ghosts, Innocent explores aspects of Japanese folklore in a contemporary context with styles borrowed heavily from the traditions of ukiyo-e (floating pictures) and manga (comics), and subsequent contemporary approaches such as Superflat. Showing at the Japan Foundation Gallery in Sydney until July 3rd, 2009.
Kitsune (きつね)
The fox (Kitsune), as with the Tanuki (racoon-dog) is a popular character in Japanese folklore and is often seen as a trickster, able to transform itself into human form, most often as young and beautiful women, and any children they bear will often have supernatural powers.
The tale of “Kuzunoha” tells the story of a young nobleman, Abe no Yasuna, who, on his way to visit a shrine in Shinoda, encounters a young military commissioner who is hunting foxes to obtain their livers for use as medicine. Yasuna battles the hunter and sets free the white fox he had trapped. Following this he meets a beautiful young women who tends to the wounds he sustained in the battle.
They return home together, fall in love and eventually marry. Later, she bears a child (a boy they call Seimei who grows up to be very clever). One day while Kuzunoha is distracted viewing the chrysanthemums in the garden her son catches a sight of the tip of her tail from beneath her kimono. Her secret is revealed, Kuzunoha departs to again live her life in the wild, leaving a farewell poem
which asks that her husband and son come to see her in the Shinoda Forest. Husband and son search for Kuzunoha and she appears to them in fox form, she tells them she is a kami (deific spirit) of Shinoda Shrine and she gives her son Seimei a gift, hoping he will one day come to comprehend the language of beasts.

"727" by Takashi Murakami (1996; synthetic polymer paint on canvas board, three panels)
Murakami has created paintings, drawings, sculptures, prints, and a line of multiples—everything from dolls to stickers to mobile phone covers—that feature Mr. DOB (shown here), an anime character of his own invention. Appealingly childlike in his bright colors and simple graphics, Mr. DOB is proof of Murakami’s theory of a “superflat” world: the character has become an iconic figure both in contemporary art and with Japanese youth, crossing over almost seamlessly from fine art to popular culture. The title of the painting refers to the 727 brand of cosmetics, advertised on billboards in Japan.

I believe this is the original 1996 silkscreen of 727. In print form, these can be rather expensive and there have been several variations since it was first released. It features an aggressive-looking Mr. Dob in the center.
