Just when you thought we’d done enough last week… we also kicked off a party celebrating world-famous artist Takashi Murakami! His new exhibition at Gagosian in New York, “An Arrow Through History,” opened last week and features new paintings, work inspired by his CloneX NFT collaboration with RTFKT Studios, and work inspired by his Murakami Flower NFT project.
The party, which was produced by Bureau Betak and held at Brooklyn Navy Yard, began with an incredible combination of DJ Zack Bia and our very own taiko pieces! Between the lights, fog, and the custom scaffolding and platforms we were scattered across, our Asano Taiko US taiko gleamed as we drummed at our loudest. You can even find the below photos of Soh Daiko member Miyuki, and Soh Daiko members Alan and Tamiko pictured behind Murakami himself, featured in an article about the event by Vogue!
Thank you Takashi Murakami and Bureau Betak for inviting us to bring the power of taiko to this amazing event. We had so much fun playing and collaborating with you!
