Kusama is internationally renowned for her groundbreaking work on themes such as infinity, self-image, sexuality, and compulsive repetition.
A well-known name in the Manhattan scene of the 1960s, Kusama's subsequent work combined Psychedelia and Pop culture with patterning, often resulting in participatory installations and series of paintings. This revised and expanded edition of the 2000 monograph, which is arguably still one of the most comprehensive studies on her work to date, has been augmented by an essay by Catherine Taft and a collection of new poems by the artist.
- Akira Tatehata is a poet and art critic who has been awarded the 2005 Takami Jun Award for Literature.
Laura Hoptman is a curator at the Museum of Modern Art in New York.
Udo Kultermann was a curator and art historian who taught at Washington University in St. Louis.
Catherine Taft is deputy director of LAXART in Los Angeles.
Key Selling Points - Kusama was selected as one of Time Magazine's 2016 World's 100 Most Influential People and, for 2014, named the world's most popular artist by The Art Newspaper for global museum attendance.
- Recent exhibitions of Kusama's work have taken place in Japan, South Korea, China, Russia, Brazil, Argentina, Mexico, Chile, Spain, England, France, North America, Denmark, Norway, and Sweden.
- Her popularity has led to a series of collaborations with corporate brands including Coca-Cola, BMW, and Louis Vuitton.
- A major exhibition focusing on the evolution of Kusama's Infinity Mirror Rooms will tour the US in 2017-18, with dates at the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden, the Seattle Art Museum, The Broad in Los Angeles, the Art Gallery of Ontario, and the Cleveland Museum of Art.
