Qatar Museums Authority will host a major exhibition by Japanese artist Takashi Murakami – his first solo exhibition in the Middle East – early next year.

The exhibit, Murakami – Ego, will be on from February 9 – June 24 at the Museum of Islamic Art.

QMA says the show will “immerse visitors in a fantasy world … capturing the way Murakami channels the ecstasy and anxiety of contemporary culture.”
