About the Art and the Artist
Yayoi Kusama has carved out a name for herself as a top contemporary artist. Throughout her illustrious career, the Japanese creative has developed a signature approach to her craft. Characterized by polka dots, bold colour palettes, and organic forms, her aesthetic is perhaps best typified by her pumpkin art, a collection of works celebrating the subject's “generous unpretentiousness.”
Kusama's love of pumpkins has significantly shaped her practice for over 70 years. Whether cropping up as detailed drawings, public sculptures, or immersive installations, Kusama's stylized interpretations of the humble squash have become some of her most well-known works—and are among contemporary art‘s most iconic masterpieces.
Kusama has created several new works of pumpkin art since the start of the new millennium, 2016 and 2017.
These traveling installations of Kusama's pumpkin sculptures have popped up in public spaces and private collections around the world, from the Kirishima Open Air Museum in Kagoshima Prefecture to the Donum Estate in California's Wine Country. The best part? We can only expect Kusama's collection of pumpkin works to grow, as it seems that the 90-year-old artist has no intention of slowing down anytime soon.
