Takashi Murakami opens a gallery in Berlin. The Japanese artist and his company Kaikai Kiki are calling the gallery Hidari Zingaro (named after the Edo period sculptor). The gallery opens in June, but is previewing the space tomorrow to coincide with Berlin's Gallery Weekend and will be marked by an all-day live Manga painting event by Mahomi Kunikata (picture above), known for her explorations of "the otaku culture of sexually explicit manga."
