pen BOOKS I really love it! Yayoi Kusama. The trajectory of an artist who captivates the world in one book. 《Complete bilingual edition: Japanese + English》 Yayoi Kusama, the avant-garde artist. The world is now captivated by this artist. Her works are priced in the hundreds of millions, and large-scale retrospective exhibitions are held in first-class museums around the world. Also, outdoor installations such as the pumpkins on Naoshima have captured the hearts of non-art fans. This book introduces the trajectory of this unparalleled genius, who is compared to Picasso, without missing anything. Many new works, which are being shown for the first time in Japan, are also included. In 1957, Kusama went to the United States alone, creating a sensation with her paintings of infinitely expanding "nets" and numerous nude happenings. She is one of the few Japanese artists to be recognized internationally early on. Her creative world, which began with the hallucinations that plagued her from a young age, gains eternity and a magnificent grandeur that can be called the universe through the powerful, repetitive vision of "polka dots" that she saw herself. Curators of museums that own her works all say the same thing: "Everyone who sees Kusama's work naturally exclaims, 'Ah!'" Love, and the mystery of life—an unparalleled genius who scoops up the unattainable mystery in both hands and shows it to you! This book is the trajectory of Yayoi Kusama, which flows redly like an artery in art history. G12: Tokyo's Top Galleries An art book containing information on Tokyo's top galleries.
