And Then, And Then, And Then And Then, And Then (Red) 1996

Takashi Murakami's "And Then, And Then, And Then And Then, And Then (Red)" (1996) showcases his signature style of Superflat, blending Japanese anime and manga aesthetics with traditional fine art techniques. This particular artwork features a close-up of his iconic Mr. DOB character, a playful and slightly unsettling figure with oversized eyes and a wide, toothy grin. The bold red and white color scheme and the use of contrasting textures contribute to the whimsical yet slightly unsettling tone of the piece, engaging viewers with its playful yet unsettling aesthetic.
