The Mori Art Museum exhibition “Takashi Murakami: The 500 Arhats” is to finally close its curtain this weekend. It is with our great excitement to announce the “LAST WEEKEND SPECIAL” where the opening hours of the exhibition are to be extended on the final three days (Friday, March 4 - Sunday, March 6).
Having attracted over 250,000 visitors from around the world already, this exhibition provides us with the last opportunity to see the artist's 100-meter long masterpiece The 500 Arhats in Japan. This will be a golden opportunity for all to fully enjoy the world of Takashi Murakami's from earlier in the mornings until later in the evenings!
We are currently planning on presenting an exclusive, extremely rare, and also not-for-sale “Murakami” item of goods to commemorate the 300,000th visitor of the exhibition!
