Takashi Murakami Supreme Skate DecksSupreme has a penchant like none other for picking the best and brightest collaborative partners. In 2007, Takashi Murakami joined the ranks of Todd James, Peter Saville, Larry Clark, Roy Lichtenstein and other artists who have collaborated with the legendary New York-based brand. A total of three decks were released, once again utilizing the anime-inspired characters from Murakami’s past archive of works.
By proposing the concept of “Superflat”, he interprets modern Japanese culture in a state where the line between high and low culture has been melted.  As an artist, Murakami questions the relationship between East and West, past and present, fine art, pop culture and mass media. In 1996, Murakami founded the Hiropon Factory in order to produce large scale art works with his group of assistants and in 2001 it evolved into KaiKai Kiki. With bases in Tokyo, Saitama, and New York, Kaikai Kiki is a pioneering organization which aims to broaden the horizons and parameters of Japanese contemporary art. One of Kaikai Kiki's artists Mr., born in Cupa in 1969, has a body of work that thrives on the "otaku" culture of Japan.  Mr. adopted his name from the national baseball superstar Shigeo Nagashima’s alias “Mister”.
