Push in exterior of Brooklyn Museum to party \u003cbr/\u003eJapanese contemporary artist Takashi Murakami was celebrated Thursday night (3 April) with a black tie dinner and entertainment by Grammy-winning rapper Kanye West at the Brooklyn Museum in New York City. \u003cbr/\u003eThe Brooklyn Ball kicked off Murakami, a major retrospective of the artist's works runs from 5 April through 13 July 2008. Louis Vuitton sponsored the evening and featured a street vendor shopping market, selling LV purses, wallets and other products as well as canvases created by Murakami especially for the event.  \u003cbr/\u003eAttending the gala were celebrities and socialites, artists and fashionistas. Names included models Eva Herzigova and Chicho Aoshima, tennis all-star John McEnroe, actress Kristin Davis of \"Sex and the City\" and architect Frank Geary.  \u003cbr/\u003eLouis Vuitton Artistic Director Marc Jacobs described the evening's event to AP Entertainment News exclusively on the red carpet. \u003cbr/\u003e\"It's an event of fashion, art and music,\" he said. \"I'm a designer for Louis Vuitton, the artistic director. I collaborated with a great contemporary artist Takashi Murakami who has also collaborated with Kanye West who is performing tonight. I think, it's very representative of the idea of art and people sort of not feeling culturally unable to appreciate art because they weren't schooled in it. I mean, contemporary art is inclusive.\"   \u003cbr/\u003eJacobs also explained the idea of having a Louis Vuitton shop inside the museum, with 10 New York style street vendors real LV merchandise, not copycats, and how this related to the company's crackdown on counterfeit merchandise. \u003cbr/\u003e\"You know, does art imitate life or does life imitate art? Because to see people shopping was kind of a performance art in a way and to be shopping within a retrospective for the pieces that were created in collaboration with the artist, it's just kind of this what came first thing. This street vendor idea sort of takes it to another level and of course has a little bit of irony because of Vuitton and how particular they are about counterfeits,\" Jacobs said.  \u003cbr/\u003eJacobs, who went into rehab a year ago March (12 March 2007), told AP Entertainment News exclusively that he was feeling fine and in great shape. \u003cbr/\u003e\"I feel great. Yeah. Good. I feel terrific. Yeah,\" said Jacobs cheerfully.  \u003cbr/\u003eGuest of honour, artist Takashi Murakami, explained the evening as being a new beginning. \u003cbr/\u003e\"It looks like kind of a new era because art comes to entertainment. Like the first time people mention for the cooperation of fashion and art, but maybe in the near future, this is the kind of new entertainment,\" he said.  \u003cbr/\u003eMurakami added that he is a great fan of both Kanye West and Marc Jacobs: \"Kanye West, about his fashion, he's cool. Marc Jacobs is genius, genius,\" he said.  \u003cbr/\u003eVictoria's Secret model Selita Eubanks summed up the evening as a fusion of high fashion, pop art and rap music. \"It's kind of made this huge circle. All just kind of makes sense. You know, It's just a very sexy night,\" she said.  \u003cbr/\u003eMeanwhile, rapper Kanye West managed to avoid the paparazzi completely by arriving late and entering through another
