Murakami Takash is an outstanding contemporary visual artist in Japan,his works of art have distinctive characteristics.Under the influence of popular culture,such as animation and cartoon,he analyzed the lack of connotation of Japanese culture,and launched the superflat artistic style movement.The idea of superflat art is closely related to the market,so it forms the unique artistic style of Murakami Takash.Murakami Takash mentioned the idea of " superflat" for the first time in the United States.superflat is super flat,without depth,and its works are characterized by symbolization,planarization andcartoonlization.This is not only the analysis of the lack of depth of Japanese popular culture,but also the summary of the features of Japanese animation and cartoon plane.Murakami Takash believes that Japanese contemporary art is caricature,and this flat-style style can be traced back to the Edo epoch of Japan,which is characterized by its secular and glamorous nature.Known as the postmodernism before western modernism,Murakami Takash's superflat art has the same work as the Ukihiro painting,so it has been recognized by the western art circles.Murakami Takash's artistic creation and marketing are inseparable,the superflat theoretical system needs Murakami constantly to seek topics or hot spots to marketing.His unabashed talk about the importance of money shattered the myth of "art is poverty".The cross-border cooperation with the fashion circle has broken the situation of elite art.Murakami Takash is undoubtedly a success,the art won a lot of money and applause,even known as Japan's Andy Warhol.The purpose of this paper is to through the analysis of Murakami Takash's artistic style,this paper reveals the new turn of artistic ideology in the context of globalization,and the perfect agreement between art and commerce is worthy of reference by contemporary C hinese artists.But Murakami Takash's success is only a phenomenon,not a pattern,and cannot be copied.Chinese contemporary artists should pay attention to the inheritance of cultural foundation and create contemporary art with "C hinese characteristics" according to their own combing of art history and perception of art trends.
