Me standing inside of FireFlies on the Water by Yayoi Kusama, Whitney Museum
Her Posters are everywhere in NYC. Her fabulous bangs and oddly wild dotted outfit that blends into the back ground tells you ” Enough said “. You have to go see her. There is a long line waiting to get into Whitney is impressive. It’s handsome crowd gathering. Everyone seems bit nervous and excite. and Me too! I can’t wait to be in!!!
Doesn’t she look here like Edna in that animated film, ” Incredibles” ?
In the lobby. Awwww, Exciting!
I followed the big balloons and it leads me to the restaurant downstairs. I want this situation at my house!
I am dressed for Ms.Yayoi Kusama. Huge respect.
Going back to Lobby to see Fireflies on the water! I am starting YAYOI KUSAMA!
Only one person at a time is allowed in the room of Fireflies on the water. And you must make an reservation to get a ” Timed ticket” at the ticket desk on the day of visit. Each visitor gets to have 1 full minute per visit.
Thank you Whitney for such a Fab walking guide!
Photos are NOT allowed in the museum so I am about to share many images from the book, “KUSAMA” published by Rizzoli that I purchased at the Museum. Rizzoli edition actually better captures the Exibition at Whitney than Whitney’s own publication.
One of early paintings.
Kusama in her studio, early years. I absolutely loved all the old pics of the artist at the exhibition!!! And her sketch books. To die for….!
She has done series of Pieces working with Fabric, stuffing, shapes, repetition…. This is called ” Cloud”. This covers about good 300 sqft of surface on the floor.
These collection of Stuffed and painted canvas fabric fills up about 800 sqft of room. And it’s up to good 4 foot tall.
There were series of this Typography based posters of Kusama’s Arty parties in 60’s. They make me go crazy. I adore these.
57th street, 5th avenue. Louis Vuitton is an official supporter of this exhibition and also had collaborated ” INFINITELY” collection.
