 Little Boy Exhibition NY '05 I was wondering if anyone else here went to the Takashi Murakami curated exhibition 'Little Boy: The Art of Japan's Exploding Subculture' in New York back in 2005, and what they thought of it. It was a while back, but it was one of the first exhibitions of modern Japanese art I'd been to and still remember the collection of vintage Japanese toys on display and the Chinatsu Ban elephants on 60th and 5th. http://www.japansociety.org/little_boy_ ... subculturehttp://asianart.com/exhibitions/littleboy/index.html#2

Re: Little Boy Exhibition NY '05 I went to that! I absolutely loved the exhibit, and thought it was a really well put together show.

Re: Little Boy Exhibition NY '05 When I read the title, I kinda expected something "weird" to be waiting for me in here. Glad it was just the title of the Murakami Exhibit.

Re: Little Boy Exhibition NY '05 I went to a version of it at the Akron Art Museum, I thought it was before 2005 though...it was pretty excellent. It was fun to see such things in a serious setting.
