Is there such a designer...

[Wuxiapian]

... known as Takashi Murakami?

And, does this "designer" work for Louis Vuitton?

Ta very much if anyone can assist.

I think he's a japanese artist. Not sure though. Have you googled?

here

He is an artist.

Don't know about Vuitton connection.

"Like Andy Warhol, Takashi Murakami takes low culture and repackages it, and sells it to the highest bidder in the ?high-art? market. Unlike Warhol, Murakami also makes his repacked low culture available to all other markets in the form of paintings, sculptures, videos, T-shirts, key chains, mouse pads, plush dolls, cell phone caddies, and $5,000 limited-edition Louis Vuitton handbags"

What the?! Can anyone make sense of this?

erm....

no!

What don't you understand about it, wuxiapan?
