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.

ReplyDeleteOooh how I would like to see that exhibition. I love her and her work. Unfortunately, it's not exactly close
ReplyDeleteWow its stunning work for sure.
ReplyDeleteNo dildos that I can see. And I do particularly like the orange and black in Photos #1 and 5.
ReplyDeleteI am so sorry to self-advertise, but my latest post is called "Migrants welcome to Australia - Bonegilla". My bloody blog is still showing my last post :(
Blogspot is playing up again.
DeleteThat must have been an incredible exhibit to witness—something I would have loved to see. Fantastic photos!
ReplyDeleteDon't apologize for that! These photos are fantastic! I would love this exhibit -- so much to see and so many ways to see it. I wish this would come somewhere near me.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun exhibit, amazing art work. Take care, have a wonderful day!
ReplyDelete...Yayoi referred to herself as the high priestess of Polka Dots and I agree!!!
ReplyDeleteTruly dazzling
DeleteAbsolutely amazing !
ReplyDeleteSome pretty vivid and impressive work.
ReplyDeleteOh wow, I'd love to see this exhibit. Thanks for all the photos, they are fantastic.
ReplyDeleteThere was a large show of her work here a few years ago but I didn't get to it so it is great to see all of these pics.
ReplyDeleteI did not know she was that famous until walking into the place.
DeleteAs you may've noticed, I love her work. I'm down for the day for my birthday present - alas only enough time for the exhibition so no catch up...but possibly later in the year.
ReplyDeleteIt was a surprise for Joel and myself regardless
DeleteStunning photos. Amazing Exhibition :-D
ReplyDeleteWhat an incredible exhibit. I enjoyed looking at all of your photos!
