We are pleased to announce that the Yayoi Kusama Museum will hold its 17th exhibition, “KUSAMA’s POP ”.
Yayoi Kusama’s work, with its vivid colors and striking clarity, has often been regarded as “pop.” When tracing back, this characterization reveals intersections between her work and the Pop Art movement that flourished in New York in the 1960s, where she was then based. Yet her practice is rooted in deeply personal impulses—hallucinations and obsessions—through which she layers everyday imagery with inner visions to create a distinctive artistic world.
The exhibition also features a small mirror room newly unveiled to the public, in which colorful polka dots reflect endlessly, alongside an installation employing inflatable objects that enliven the surrounding space and fill it with color. We invite you to experience KUSAMA’s POP—a world energized by rhythmic repetition and an extraordinary sense of color.
