Yayoi Kusama Exhibition at National Gallery of Victoria for Treasure Tuesday

 





















The exhibition of Yayoi Kusama was truly a sight to behold. Joel and I ventured there, as we were unable to journey to the coast due to a dinner engagement elsewhere. The exhibition was most enlightening. Yayoi referred to herself as the high priestess of Polka Dots, though Joel was of a different opinion. He posited that she should be termed the high priestess of Dildos, for nearly every second piece exhibited phallic structures projecting from all directions. Subsequently, I perused discussions of sexual liberation in 1970s New York, where the artist presented her work in Central Park. It then became clear. My apologies for the plethora of photographs here; I thought it prudent to keep them together for ease of reference.
