Takashi Murakami in driver’s seat of Pivo

Remember Nissan’s Pivo (the egg car for drivers who can’t park)? I’ve just read that the gallery space for the Pivo event had been designed by super star artist Takashi Murakami on the theme of “Pivo-chan,” a character he designed based on the concept car’s inspiring image.

Mind you, i think the car is more goofy and cartoon-esque than Pivo-Chan. See Murakami’s previous collaborations with Louis Vuittonn and Roppongi Hills (lovely Mr. Pointy).
