Superflat
“Superflat” is an art movement founded by Japanese artist Takashi Murakami in the early 2000s. It combines elements of traditional Japanese art with contemporary pop culture, particularly anime and manga. The style is characterized by its two-dimensionality, bright colors, and a focus on consumerism and superficiality in modern society.
The movement critiques the boundaries between high and low art, blurring the lines between fine art and commercial design. It has influenced various fields, including fashion and graphic design, and has led to collaborations with brands like Louis Vuitton. Superflat reflects the complexities of contemporary culture in a visually engaging manner.
