Exposition:

One of the most influential artists born in the 60s in Japan, Takashi Murakami enjoys renowned reputation globally and is the idol of many Japanese youngsters. His artworks completely blurred the borders between exquisite art and slapstick humor. He is deeply inspired by Japanese traditional comic books which compose of vivid colors and strong implication of violence. 

LV- a bag manufacturing factory established by Loius Vuitton in 1854 has maintained its traditions and signature for a century. The four cloves and LV compiled and represented the century’s honor. Working with Japanese designer Takashi Murakami in 2003 for the first time, the Monogram Multicolor with a background of either white or black was launched. Thousands of Monogram basis merchandise went on market and more colors and variation were added. The classic multicolor series were included into many colorful bags and broke through LV’s 150 years of traditions. This breakthrough has attracted high attention. “Monogram Multicolor LV with black background” is created by Murakami freestyle on the monogram print. He dyed the classic print with beautiful colors in at least 33 shades such as blue, green, red, yellow, pink and so on. Each color presents subtle and delicate balance. With a very difficult production process, the classical print has stood out pleasantly.
