Yayoi Kusama Covered Everything in Dots and Wasn’t Sorry

Fausto Gilberti

Told in a fictionalized first-person voice, this book follows artist Yayoi Kusama’s life and work. As a young woman, she leaves Japan for the United States, where artists are trying new approaches. Kusama’s own work centers on dots, which she places throughout her art. She later develops soft, cushioned forms used to fill rooms and cover objects such as boats, shoes, couches, armchairs, and hats. Black-and-white illustrations depict Kusama and her distinctive art.
