We saw the ©Murakami show when it came to LA...but the show's stop at Guggenheim Bilbao looks incredible. More pieces, beautiful location. It's too bad that young American fans relate Murakami to Kanye West so quickly because of the last album cover...Murakami is the man, and his work stands alone.
