YAYOI KUSAMA: I Spend Each Day Embacing Flowers
New York, David Zwirner Gallery. YAYOI KUSAMA: I Spend Each Day Embacing Flowers. 168 pages with 103 color and b&w plates. 4to, cloth. New York, David Zwirner Books, 2024.
Celebrating the visitor experience, this publication offers an immersive tour of Kusama's 2023 exhibition at David Zwirner New York. Illustrating thirty-five paintings, a gigantic sculptural maze of pumpkin walls, a lush garden of towering flowers, and a fan-favorite Infinity Mirror Room, the result is a book that offers the sense of experiencing the work in person for readers who have not had the chance.
New scholarship by Robert Slifkin looks at how Kusama innovates and complicates art historical traditions of image production and how her art seeks to connect humans with the greater cosmos. An essay by Lynn Zelevansky reflects on her own long-standing engagement with Kusama's work and the ways in which it, across the decades, can be seen as a record of love in all its complexity: full of humanity, generosity, affection, sadness, and pain.
