Takashi Murakami is joining a group of acclaimed Japanese artists to create artwork for a new Tokyo exhibit that focuses on one of the most popular franchises in Japan, Doraemon.

Collectively, the showcase will boast paintings, sculptures, and more made by Murakami, Mika Ninagawa, Miran Fukuda and Yasumasa Morimura to name a few.

The exhibit titled “Create Your Own Original Doraemon” will take place at the Mori Arts Center Gallery in Tokyo’s Roppongi district this November 2 up until January 8, 2018. Visit The Doraemon Tokyo’s official website to learn more.
