Panda

Perched atop a vintage Louis Vuitton trunk, Panda draws attention to the increasingly blurred relationship between art and global commerce. In a world where art can be just another luxury item, Murakami Takashi’s blend of Asian and U.S./European attitudes captures the complexity of a newly global market in which cultures are connected through products. Panda invites us to imagine a fantasy world populated by cute corporate mascots and designer logos that have come to life.
