Should an art museum also be a boutique? Usually the line between the exhibits and the gift shop is pretty firmly drawn but for a few months, a gallery at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Los Angeles
will host a store selling Louis Vuitton Murakami bags and other goods. The designs are part of an exhibit of the Japanese artist Takashi Murakami's works that runs from Oct. 29 through Feb. 11. The museum's chief curator has said that a mock up of Murakami's commercial ventures would not have worked. The museum won't get a share of the profits but perhaps the thought of designer shopping at the museum will attract new visitors.
