This is pretty exciting. As seen in all the Basquiat films he transformed his girlfriends apartment into a living installation painting on pretty much anything he could think of in the crib. Alexis Adler was a smart chick and never repainted over any of the work, she’s now planning to release a book on the collection as well as an exhibition sale.

Takashi Murakami “Flowers & Skulls” @ Gagosian Gallery

This is one we wish we could head to Hong Kong for, Takashi Murakami‘s first show in Hong Kong at Gagosian Gallery. This exhibition explores one of the central dichotomies of his art—between joy and terror, his optimistic magnanimity as an artist and his pessimistic perspective on postwar Japan. Here, this dichotomy is symbolized by the stark contrast of bright smiling flowers and disturbing, menacing representations of skulls. Whether depicted as single iconic “portraits” or in complex clusters of virtuoso composition and paintwork that combine painstaking traditional artisanal techniques with the pop and fizz of manga, the flower and the skull stand as eternal motifs in the history of art and popular culture. Both oppositional and parallel, they are reminders of the fragile vibrancy of life and the inexorable passing of time. It opens tonight, November 29, in Hong Kong.
What is Art? For those of us born in Asia, it remains an ever important question. The reason is that what we today define as Art represents the path followed by Western art history and yet here in the East, we have our own history. To survive as artists, we must learn to resolve the collision of these two cultures. My own personal position is drawn from how well I can arrange the unique flowers of Asia, moreover the ever strange blossoms that have bloomed in the madness of the defeated culture of postwar Japan, into work that will live within the confines of Western art history. -Murakami

Today, the Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts begins the first phase of releasing its entire archive of Warhols, auctioning off about 350 paintings, photographs, and prints at Christie’s in New York. At price points from as little as four figures all the way to millions of dollars, the auction—fittingly, in the spirit of Warhol—is populist in its reach. Here, Life+Times offers an exclusive look at today’s sale, previewing timeless, never-before-seen Warhols.
