Takashi Murakami on NFTs, Art, and Collecting
Hello, this is Takashi Murakami.
I was featured as the cover artist in NFT Magazine (@MagazineNFT), where I spoke about my approach to art, collecting, and my ongoing exploration of NFTs as a medium of expression.
In the interview, I speak quite candidly about the background behind the birth of Murakami. Flowers, the relationship between art and capitalism, and why digital collectibles continue to be important to my practice today. It was an e-mail interview and I worked on it intensively, rewriting it over and over for about ten days.
I wanted to share this article with everyone in the Kaikai Kiki Market Place (KKMP) community as well.
I am convinced that my sincere commitment to art, as well as why I continue to focus on NFT art despite the strong headwinds surrounding it, would fully be understood after my death. The fact that I am still alive, however, perhaps makes it harder to be understood. That is why, in this interview, I took the time to explain these ideas thoroughly.
I may sound self-congratulatory, but I genuinely believe this is a valuable document for understanding what art truly is.
Please do give it a read.
Thank you very much for your support.

こんにちわ、村上隆です。
NFT Magazine (@MagazineNFT)でカバーアーティストとして村上隆が特集され、アートへの向き合い方、コレクション、そして表現手段としてのNFTの継続的な探求について語りました。
インタビューでは、Murakami. Flowersの誕生の背景、アートと資本主義の関係、そしてなぜデジタルコレクティブルが現在も自身の制作において重要であり続けているのかをかなり赤裸々に語っています。
10日間くらい原稿に向かって何度も書き直した力作の書面インタビューです。
ぜひこの原稿をKK Market Place = KKMPコミュニティの皆さんにも共有したいと思いました。
私の芸術に対する真剣な想い。そしてどーしてココまで逆風のNFT ARTにこだわり続けているかを、私の没後であるなら必ず理解していただけると思うのですが、あいにく私はまだ生きており、ゆえに理解していただくのが難しくなっていると思うので、今回のインタビューでは懇々と説明させていただきました。
芸術とは何たるか?を理解して頂く貴重な文献だと自画自賛なんですけど、本音です。
ぜひご一読ください。
どうぞヨロシクお願いいたします。

The reason why 99% are down bad on their bags is because they spent their money on founders who either never had any intention of building a real product with market fit -or couldn’t build their way out of a paper bag if they tried.

@Vipin_AR@LiebherrHomeIN@Liebherr_GB We have been having the same problem with our refrigerator. One entire section is not cooling and the other is sub par. We are disappointed that such an important expensive equipment doesn’t come with warranty nor support. Highly disappointing.
