Takashi Murakami Not Just Doodling On Vuitton Bags Anymore

If you went to Google’s homepage this morning and found yourself thinking that the search giant’s new Doodle looked familiar, it might be because you have some of the artist’s work hanging in your closet. (Or maybe because you’re just a contemporary art fan in general.) The logo above, commissioned by Google to celebrate the first official day of summer, was created by famed Japanese artist Takashi Murakami, he of the longstanding Louis Vuitton collaboration that all of us know and some of us love. Personally, I’d be excited to see a Louis Vuitton or Chanel Google Doodle. Maybe we can lobby to get one for the start of Paris Fashion Week?
