While We’re on the Subject of Murakami and Merchandising

I was out cruising the art blogs and I discovered this on the Walker’s Off Center Blog – Takashi Murakami’s cover art for the upcoming Kanye West album, Graduation. I used to have shades like that bear is rocking – in purple with pink stripes. Damn I miss feeling cool. I normally hate pop music, but why is Kanye West so compelling?

Does this mean that the upcoming Louis Vuitton sponsored opening gala for MOCA’s Murakami retrospective should have Kanye, for the sake of maintaining the credibility of aggressive curation?
