Yayoi Kusama fever sweeps across the Southern Hemisphere

#JanuaryGoodPlace2025 Yayoi Kusama is now 95 years old and is still working hard on her creations every day. In 2017, there will be an exhibition of Eternal Soul at the National Art Center, Tokyo, and in 2022, there will be an exhibition of Art from 1945 to the present at M+ Hong Kong. The Yayoi Kusama special exhibition at the National Gallery of Victoria (NGV international) in Melbourne at the end of 2024 will make residents of the southern hemisphere extremely happy! Among the nearly 200 works, one of the most famous is Yayoi Kusama's large pumpkin sculpture, "Dancing Pumpkin", which is displayed in the atrium of the museum. The five-meter-high pumpkin bends and flows like an octopus, floating on the ground. Of course, polka dots and convex mirrors are indispensable, and the endless circles reveal her profound understanding of the universe and existence. The exhibition includes nearly 200 works including paintings, sculptures, collages, fashion designs, films and installation art, fully showcasing Yayoi Kusama's astonishing cross-disciplinary creative practice. Clever use of mirrors to create infinite space and create a dreamy visual effect.
