"I open wide my eyes but see no scenery. I fix my gaze upon my heart. That I may time transcend, that a universe my heart may unfold." (2007)









"Mr. Murakami, who is frequently called the Japanese Andy Warhol, is an astute manipulator of visual languages, artistic mediums and business models..."

"...stuffed with questions of art and commerce, high and low, public brand and private expression, mass production and exquisite craft."

"...Mr. Murakami’s stated desire to make art “that makes your mind go blank, that leaves you gaping.”
