Yayoi Kusama (after) - Yellow Pumpkin MoMA
The iconic original Pumpkin by Kusama with her typical dots representing eternity is one of her most famous artworks. These lacquer-painted resin object will bring a bright pop of whimsy and optimism to your desk or bookshelf. Yayoi Kusama is represented in MoMA’s collection. With the original gilt lettered box (12 x 11 x 10.5 cm) and the MoMA bag in perfect condition.
The pumpkin is one of Yayoi Kusama’s most well known motifs, and the artist employs the gourd as both an allegory and a form of self-portraiture in paintings, drawing, sculptures and installations. She is drawn to pumpkins as a muse because of their “charming and winsome form, their generous unpretentiousness and solid spiritual base.”
Yayoi Kusama's prolific oeuvre ranges from large paintings and sculptures, to performance pieces and political demonstrations. Since childhood, Kusama has been creating works using polka dots and nets as motifs in a variety of media. During the 1950s and 1960s she played a major role in New York's avant-garde art scene, participating in many happenings, including an unannounced performance in the Sculpture Garden of The Museum of Modern Art in 1969. Kusama returned to Japan where she lives and works today, creating some of the most recognizable works of our time.
