The world’s #1 card game recently announced the launch of UNO Artiste Series: Murakami. UNO is partnering with remarkable Japanese contemporary iconic artist Takashi Murakami for the fifth deck in the brand’s premium UNO Artiste Series.
Inspired by Murakami’s signature bright and bold colors, along with his classic smiling flower characters, the UNO Artiste Series: Murakami brings his “Superflat” aesthetic to life in a premium UNO deck. The deck incorporates a wide selection of his signature artwork and even marks the first Murakami collaboration piece to include one of his abstract paintings.
Now in its fourth year, the UNO Artiste Series pays homage to influential artists across meaningful decades by infusing art directly into a premium UNO deck. The Series launched in September 2019 with Jean-Michel Basquiat and expanded in 2020 with decks featuring the art of Keith Haring and Nina Chanel Abney. Most recently in 2021, UNO teamed up with artist and illustrator Shepard Fairey.
SRP: $22 | Available at MattelCreations.com starting Friday, August 5th at 9AM PST
