The coffee-table book *Yayoi Kusama* is an updated edition of the highly acclaimed monograph, honoring one of the most iconic and revolutionary artists of our time. The Japanese artist, who recently passed away, transcends the art world and has become a fixture in popular culture, standing alongside the likes of Andy Warhol, David Hockney, and Keith Haring.
Kusama is internationally renowned for her groundbreaking work exploring themes such as infinity, self-image, sexuality, and compulsive repetition. Kusama, a well-known figure in the Manhattan art scene of the 1960s, combined psychedelia and pop culture with patterns in her later work, often resulting in interactive installations and series of paintings.
This revised and expanded edition of the 2000 monograph—which remains, by all accounts, one of the most comprehensive studies of her work to date—has been supplemented with an essay by Catherine Taft and a collection of new poems by the artist.
