Yayoi Kusama

Sorlandets Art Museum SKMU, Kristiansand

Dots Obsession - Love Transformed into Dots. A multi-media installation


sintesi del comunicato stampa

The work is part of a larger series of installations called Dots Obsession, which Kusama began in the 1990s, at the time when she was experiencing a renaissance of sorts in the international art world. The installation combines several of her most frequently used motifs. Her trademark, the polka dot, spreads across large balloons that hang from the ceiling, lie on the floor and float about the room. The public can lose themselves in a world of dots and enter one of Kusama's 'infinity rooms.' Kusama herself is covered with polka dots as she sings from a suspended video projection. Yayoi Kusama's installation is part of SKMU Sorlandets Kunstmuseum's marking of the centennial for Norwegian women's suffrage. SKMU has chosen to devote all of 2013 to women's art, women's art history and issues related to women's rights and opportunities. In addition to a revised, critical look at our own collection and how it represents women, we present Kusama's installation alongside a retrospective of works by the local pioneer of Norwegian textile art, Else Marie Jakobsen (1927-2012).
