Superflat

Takashi Murakami described Hokusai's "Thunderstorm Beneath the Summit" as an example of a Superflat art piece.[1]

Superflat is a postmodern art movement, founded by Japanese contemporary artist Takashi Murakami, which is influenced by manga and anime.[2] However, superflat does not have an explicit definition because Takashi Murakami does not want to limit the movement, but rather leave room for it to grow and evolve over time.[1]

Superflat is also the name of a 2000[1] art exhibition, curated by Murakami, that toured West Hollywood, Minneapolis and Seattle.[3]
