The exhibition in Chelsea featured two new Infinity Mirror Rooms, one which could be seen through a peephole (below) and another, where the viewers could walk in (from which yesterday’s ”teaser” photos). There was also a red and white polka-dotted space and a larger one featuring sixty-six paintings from the artist’s iconic My Eternal Soul series and three large-scale flower sculptures.
Immerse into Yayoi Kusama’s mesmerizing, beautiful chaos. You may even discover a kind of order behind this explosion of colour, this pandemonium of patterns and shapes, this sensory overload.
After a while, it all starts to make sense.












Festival of Life ran through a limited time only, in David Zwirner Chelsea concurrently with an exhibition of Kusama’s new Infinity Nets paintings, in their uptown location. We never made it to the latter.

So beautiful! I hope this exhibit returns, I’d love to see it. I’ve noticed a lot of this style of art lately and wonder if this is the trend?

That’s not surprising given that Kusama is one of the most influential people in the world (TIME, 100 most influential people, 2016)!

Excellent news! I may have to be there myself too! I see there’ll be a few more and different rooms… If I can’t make it I’ll count on you and your photos, ok? But be prepared to fight for prebooking (they get sold out in seconds) – and there will definitely be lines!
