Jerry Saltz misses the work by a mile. Murakami's curated show 'Little Boy' at Japan Society explained much art and pop culture is a response to the nuclear attacks, and the responding 'cute' kawaii culture in Japan.. 'Little Boy' was the American name for the bomb. Through this lens Murakama's obsessive and possibly expressive vision is less cotton candy than a rebuke importing ideas and products to a thoughtless country that still is seen as an occupied force in Japan. Warhol? Really?

Hunny: TAKASHI!!!!!!! <3

Yeah, I don't know if I'm in the right part of youtube for anyone to get this reference, but I don't care.

Anyhow, Murakami never ceases to fascinate me! It's all, like, exploding rainbow unicorns! :D
