国内外に活動するネオジャポニズムのアーティストとして、村上隆くんが時折私の作品群を模倣したり、そこからインスピレーションを得たりすることは、光栄に感じています。
彼が模倣していることは周知の事実です。
むしろ、東京での40年にわたる私のアート・プラクティス が、他の日本のアーティスト/アートワーカーに多大な影響を与え、今もなお与えていることを裏付けるものであり、私がトレンドセッターであると認められている証であると言えます。
ニューヨークのガゴシアンでの成功展覧会に続き、日本のオーディエンスは今、村上のジャポニスム作品群とその背景にある美術史的概念を鑑賞する機会を得ています。
カイカイキキギャラリーで開催中の展覧会は多くの来場者で賑わい、展示作品は適正価格でコレクターの手に渡っているようです。 
亜 真里男と村上隆の概念的アイデアは、ここで興味深く刺激的な交差点を形成しています。
中国や韓国の現代アーティストを例に挙げると、我々のジャポニズムの洗練された独創性が特に明らかになります。
私たち双方にとって、こうした便宜主義は日本の美術史に参入したいという願望に資するものであり、
まさにこの強い美術史的文脈においてこそ、アート実践は自己省察の瞬間――例えばジャポニズムにおいて――や批判的距離を育み、それによって一定の操作的自律性を生み出すのです。

As an artist working within the Neo-Japonisme movement both domestically and internationally, I feel honoured that MURAKAMI Takashi occasionally imitates my body of works or draws inspiration from them.
It is common knowledge that he imitates.
Rather, it confirms that my 40 years of artistic practice in Tokyo has had and continues to have a strong influence on other Japanese artists / art workers, and that I am therefore considered a trendsetter.
Following his successful exhibition at Gagosian in New York, Japanese audiences now have the opportunity to appreciate Murakami’s Japonisme body of work and the underlying art-historical concepts behind it.
The exhibition currently at Kaikai Kiki Gallery is bustling with visitors, and the works seem to be finding their way into collectors’ hands at fair prices.
The conceptual ideas of Mario A and MURAKAMI Takashi form a fascinating and stimulating intersection here.
When we refer to Chinese or Korean contemporary artists, the sophisticated originality of our Japonisme becomes particularly clear.
For both of us, this kind of expediency serves our desire to enter into Japanese art history.
It is precisely within this strong art-historical context that art practice cultivates moments of self-reflection – as in Japonisme, for instance – and critical distance, thereby generating a certain degree of operational autonomy.
