Title
Here, Now, I have Reached the Grandest Start of My Life
Since childhood, Yayoi Kusama has drawn dozens of drawings everyday capturing her hallucinations.
This exhibition presents the starting point of the artist's creative career, showcasing her earliest drawings and watercolor works - mainly created in her hometown Matsumoto back in the 1950's. The display of these 40 paper works is divided into two viewing terms during the exhibition period. Alongside showcasing her latest canvas series My Eternal Soul and her recent Infinity Mirror Room, the exhibition introduces Yayoi Kusama's creative starting point, tracing the footprints of abundant ingenuity of an artist who continues to know no bounds, saying "Here, Now, I have Reached the Grandest Start of My Life".
