Step into the world of Takashi Murakami, where psychedelic blooms, mischievous cartoon characters, and a splash of sci-fi surrealism collide—this time, inside an oversized Louis Vuitton trunk. At Art Basel Hong Kong 2025, the French luxury house is showcasing a curated selection of Murakami’s greatest hits, from Superflat masterpieces to his legendary collaborations with Louis Vuitton. Expect a riot of colour, a touch of nostalgia, and that signature Murakami magic, all wrapped up in an acid-green fabric-lined booth that feels like a portal to another dimension.
Anchoring the experience are Zoucho-kun and Tamon-kun, two towering figures greeting guests like gatekeepers of an alternate universe, alongside the hypnotic Superflat Jellyfish Eyes 1 screen. Inside, Murakami’s boundary-pushing works unfold—from sculptures to prints, textiles, and even a hidden screening room for his mind-bending video art. Of course, Louis Vuitton fans will recognize some familiar icons—the legendary Monogram Multicolore Marilyn Trunk and Monogramouflage Keepall make a triumphant return, marking the brand’s renewed collaboration with the artist for the Murakami 2025 Re-Edition Collection. It’s art, fashion, and nostalgia wrapped up in a surreal, hyper-saturated package—exactly the kind of statement Murakami and Louis Vuitton do best.
