APC ART is pleased to offer our global collector base Takashi Murakami’s “Skulls & Flowers” (Cleveland Museum of Art Edition), a rare and highly sought-after silkscreen print in colors on wove paper.

Measuring approximately 24 x 24 inches (60cm x 60cm), the work is hand signed and numbered by Murakami in graphite pencil, and bears both the Kaikai Kiki blind stamp and the Cleveland Museum of Art blind stamp. From a strictly limited edition of 300, this release was made available exclusively to museum VIPs, making it one of the most elusive and desirable Murakami editions ever released.

This silkscreen is nothing short of breathtaking. Murakami fuses his two most iconic motifs — smiling flowers and skulls — into a kaleidoscopic composition that vibrates with life, energy, and depth. The dense layering of color and intricate detailing gives the work a textured, almost sculptural quality, which few silkscreens in contemporary art can match. The flowers radiate pure joy, while the skulls remind us of impermanence, creating a dialogue between innocence and mortality that is both visually stunning and conceptually profound. It is a work that stops viewers in their tracks, commanding attention in any collection or space.

From an investment standpoint, “Skulls & Flowers” represents an unprecedented opportunity. Murakami’s silkscreens from the Cleveland Museum editions are already considered blue-chip artworks. Their rarity, museum-backed provenance, and immaculate production quality ensure that demand will only increase in the coming years. At auction, Murakami’s editions continue to climb steadily, reinforcing their reputation as secure, long-term investments. This edition is widely regarded as one of the finest silkscreens he has ever released — precisely the kind of work top collectors hold, not sell.

Takashi Murakami is one of the most important artists of the 21st century. His “Superflat” movement redefined the boundaries between fine art, anime, street culture, and fashion, leading to global collaborations with Louis Vuitton, Pharrell Williams, Kanye West, and Supreme. His works are permanently housed in the world’s most prestigious institutions and are chased by elite collectors. Owning a Cleveland Museum silkscreen is not just acquiring an artwork — it is owning a piece of contemporary art history.

The work is in hand and will ship immediately from the USA in its original packaging as issued by the Cleveland Museum of Art and Kaikai Kiki. APC ART is pleased to offer museum-standard archival framing services upon request.

This is a visually electrifying, conceptually rich, and investment-grade Murakami silkscreen — an absolute must-have for any serious collector.
