"Takashi Murakami is now recognized as an innovator of contemporary Japanese art, creating an entirely new genre, changing the perception of art within his own country, and influencing the reception of contemporary Japanese art as an original development in response to the conditions and sensibilities of the current postmodern and global age." Midori Matsui in "Murakami Matrix: Takashi Murakami's Instrumentalization of Japanese Postmodern Culture," Exh. Cat. © MURAKAMI, Los Angeles 2007, p. 80
