NYC:_590_Sculpture_Garden___Murakami's_Oval_Buddha
Description
Takashami Murakami's <i>Oval Buddha</i>, a towering 18½ feet tall aluminum-and-steel sculpture is covered entirely in platinum leaf, depicts a Janus-faced <i>Oval</i>, one of his signature characters, seated in a meditative pose over layers of delicately carved lotus petals and an elephant at its base.
The project was first conceived in 1999, when Naoki Takizawa, chief designer for Issey Miyake approached Murakami to create an iconic character for a new line of t-shirts, which could be compressed and sold in an egg-shaped packaging. Takizawa's inspiration was Humpty Dumpty, the arbiter of war, which Murakami proceeded to developed into his own character as &quot;Oval&quot; in a variety of works over the years. In 2000, he used Oval in his Norton Family Christmas Project, <i>Mr. Wink
