Catalogue 016 'Yayoi Kusama: Fighting Woman / Painting Girl'

Product Description

This is an exhibition catalogue for Yayoi Kusama: Fighting Woman / Painting Girl, held at the Yayoi Kusama Museum from October 2025.

This volume contains a wealth of exhibition works, related materials, and Kusama’s poetry, making it highly recommended for those who missed the show or wish to study the featured works in greater depth.

From an early age, Yayoi Kusama loved drawing more than anything, and her creative practice has undergone numerous transformations over the years. During her time in the United States, she created soft sculptures that confronted her past traumas and presented provocative nude performances that challenged social norms. After returning to Japan, she once again devoted herself to painting, producing works filled with childlike innocence.

This catalogue introduces Kusama’s multifaceted world, where a spirit of fight against the times coexists with the ingenuousness of a young girl.

Please note: some materials in this catalogue include images of nude figures.
