One with Eternity: Yayoi Kusama honors the influential artist’s distinctive vision of self-obliteration by exploring its development across media. The exhibition will feature three immersive installations of Yayoi Kusama’s artwork, including two of her renowned Infinity Mirror Rooms. Born in Japan in 1929, the artist is globally recognized for her multidisciplinary practice that includes room-size installations, paintings, sculpture, poetry, and public performances. One with Eternity: Yayoi Kusama is presented in partnership with the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden in Washington, DC. 

To emphasize the depth of her artistic practice, two transcendent Infinity Mirror Rooms will be exhibited alongside a selection of small paintings and sculpture (many highlighting pumpkins, a signature motif) against biographical information and photographs of the artist over the course of her long career. 

 

Visitors will experience Kusama’s distinctive vision of self-obliteration, a radical approach to connecting with others and the universe. Observing one’s body in the infinite space of a mirrored room or losing one’s sense of place by navigating a field of colorful lamps, the boundary between the self and the outside world is dissolved and visitors become one with everything around them, one with eternity.
