Yayoi Kusama - The Journal is an Italian-made notebook in absolute luxury equipment. Based on the polka-dotted and organic universe of the Japanese world artist Yayoi Kusama (b. 1929) - known and loved by Louisiana's audience - the book is intended as an inspiration for the user, with space for own drawings and notes.
Japanese artist Yayoi Kusama - whose work Gleaming Lights of the Souls (2008) is part of Louisiana's collection - has captured the imagination of millions of museum and gallery visitors around the world with her kaleidoscopic environments.
Kusama's signature polka dots, organic shapes and optical environments that become hypnotic fuse concepts of flatness and depth, presence and absence, and beauty and the sublime.
Kusama's influential career spans paintings, performances, room-sized presentations, outdoor sculptural installations, literary works, film, fashion, design and interventions within existing architectural structures that simultaneously allude to microscopic and to macroscopic universes.
