TAKASHI MURAKAMI
Takashi Murakami is an international star, not only in contemporary art circles but also with the general public.
He masterfully achieves this result by combining leading-edge multimedia tools with traditional Japanese techniques such as gold leaf.
His visually very modern style offers a subtle reflection between Japanese tradition and pop culture.
A real rock star in the contemporary art world, he coined the name Superflat for the artistic movement he began.
“When I visited the Hublot manufacture in Switzerland for the first time, I realised to what extent the traditional know-how, precision, futuristic technology and craftsmanship were all intertwined in the creation of a watch. Bringing my art into the creativity of these watchmakers represents a unique adventure for me.”
