Compared to the Belgian painter, <a href=\"http:\/\/yayoi-kusama.jp\/\"><strong>Yayoi Kusama<\/strong><\/a>, it has a thousand times more fascinating and striking story, a saga about how a young Japanese woman conquered the whole world with her art. Today, at the age of 90, Yayoi is perhaps the most famous and richest woman in contemporary visual arts and perhaps in all of history.<\/p>\n<p>The artist&#8217;s artistic beginnings are in post-war Japan, when the passion for painting was intertwined with the turmoil of family life. Psychoanalysts explain his explosive and transgressive fantasies through the traumas of childhood when he had to endure a toxic family with a womanly father and a traveling life, along with a jealous mother, who took little Yayoi as a witness to domestic suffering. His mother was against art and tore up her drawings, but little Yayoi, with the stubbornness that had dominated her all her life, turned to compositions made of mud and old sacks. She later studied at the Kyoto School of Arts and Crafts, where the artist was drawn more to American abstract impressionism, as opposed to the traditional Japanese style of &#8222;nihonga&#8221; painting.<\/p>\n<p>In 1958, with money sewn into his clothes and a baggage of his paintings, he moved to New York, where he entered the role of modern art.<\/p>\n<p>Its beginnings are marked by anti-war social reactions, adherence to the &#8222;hippie&#8221; counter-culture, virulent street happening and relationships with American avant-garde artists. Towards the end of the 1960s, she attracted the public&#8217;s attention when she organized a series of events in which naked participants were painted with intensely colored dots.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<style type=\"text\/css\">\n#foogallery-gallery-39449.fg-justified .fg-item { margin-right: 2px; margin-bottom: 2px; }\n#foogallery-gallery-39449.fg-justified .fg-image {

Photograph: Shunk-Kender \u00a9 J. Paul Getty Trust. The Getty Research Institute, Los Angeles<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Very soon Yayoi&#8217;s creation intensified and diversified, his paintings and installations building an &#8222;op-art&#8221; universe (optic-art) with brutalist, pop, psychedelic tendencies. Along with the struggle for creation, her mental disorders intensified, which later led her to turn Yayoi into a permanent patient of a psychiatric hospital. Curator Mika Yoshitake said that Kusama&#8217;s works are meant to immerse the whole person in Kusama&#8217;s accumulations, obsessions and repetitions. These endless, repetitive works were originally meant to eliminate Kusama&#8217;s intrusive thoughts, but now he shares them with the world.<\/p>\n<p>These experiences seem unique to her work, as Kusama wanted others to sympathize with her in her troubled life. Bedatri D. Choudhury described how Kusama&#8217;s lifelong lack of control made her, either consciously or subconsciously, want to control how others perceive time and space as she enters her exhibits. This statement seems to imply that without her trauma, Kusama would not have created these works as well or perhaps not at all. Art had become a coping mechanism for Kusama.<\/p>\n<p>Yayoi recounted how he went to his native Japan to draw flower fields: \u201cI thought only people could talk, so I was surprised that violets used words. I was so terrified that my feet began to tremble. &#8222;This was the first of a series of disturbing hallucinations &#8211; she calls them depersonalizations &#8211; that haunted her childhood.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<style type=\"text\/css\">\n#foogallery-gallery-39464.fg-justified .fg-item { margin-right: 2px; margin-bottom: 2px; }\n#foogallery-gallery-39464.fg-justified .fg-image { height: 200px; }<\/style>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"foogallery foogallery-container foogallery-justified foogallery-lightbox-foobox fg-justified fg-ready fg-light fg-shadow-outline fg-loading-default fg-loaded-fade-in fg-caption-always fg-hover-fade fg-hover-zoom2 fg-no-js\" id=\"foogallery-gallery-39464\" data-foogallery=\"{&quot;item&quot;:{&quot;showCaptionTitle&quot;:true,&quot;showCaptionDescription&quot;:false},&quot;lazy&quot;:true,&quot;src&quot;:&quot;src&quot;,&quot;srcset&quot;:&quot;srcset&quot;,&quot;template&quot;:{&quot;rowHeight&quot;:200,&quot;maxRowHeight&quot;:300,&quot;margins&quot;:2,&quot;align&quot;:&quot;center&quot;,&quot;lastRow&quot;:&quot;smart&quot;}}\" style=\"--fg-title-line-clamp: 0; --fg-description-line-clamp: 0;\" >\n\t<div class=\"fg-item fg-type-image fg-loading\"><figure class=\"fg-item-inner\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/sud-est-forum.ro\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/1238334.png?ssl=1\" data-attachment-id=\"39465\" data-type=\"image\" class=\"fg-thumb\"><span class=\"fg-image-wrap\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/sud-est-forum.ro\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/cache\/2020\/11\/1238334\/2983889482.png?resize=282%2C300&#038;ssl=1\" height=\"300\" width=\"282\" class=\"skip-lazy fg-image\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/span><span class=\"fg-image-overlay\"><\/span><\/a><\/figure><div class=\"fg-loader\"><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fg-item fg-type-image fg-loading\"><figure class=\"fg-item-inner\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/sud-est-forum.ro\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/An-installation-by-Yayoi-Kusama-at-David-Zwirner-in-New-York-in-2017.Foto-Jocelyn-Noveck.jpg?ssl=1\" data-caption-title=\"In this Nov. 21, 2017 photo, people view a polka-dotted room created by Japanese artist Yayoi Kusama, part of the exhibit, &quot;Yayoi Kusama: Festival of Life,&quot; on display at the David Zwirner gallery in the Chelsea section of New York.

I was taught that sex was dirty, shameful, something to hide. Complicating things even more was the whole discussion about good families and arranged marriage and the absolute opposition to romantic love &#8230; I also witnessed the sexual act when I was a child and the fear that went through my eyes went out inside me. &#8221;<\/p>\n<p>In March 1977 he was admitted to a psychiatric hospital. For some artists, this could have been the end of things, but for Kusama it was a new beginning. She found a way to manage her mania and direct it to her creativity. &#8222;A long time ago,&#8221; Kusama wrote back, &#8222;I decided that all I could do was express my thoughts through my art and that I would continue to do so until I died, even though no one would ever see the work. my. Today, I never forget that my works of art have moved millions of people around the world. &#8222;Kusama sleeps in the hospital every night and works in her studio across the street six days a week. Eat sushi at the local supermarket. She makes her own clothes. He seems to have little interest in the fortune that came to him late in life. She has a small team of assistants in her studio and gallery owners who take care of her interests in New York, Tokyo and London.<\/p>\n<p>The Internet gave Kusama this chance to &#8222;be everywhere&#8221; in ways she could not have imagined when she sat in her peony field as a girl. &#8222;I am determined to create the world of Kusama, which no one has ever made and never trodden,&#8221; she wrote.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<style type=\"text\/css\">\n#foogallery-gallery-39479.fg-justified .fg-item { margin-right: 2px; margin-bottom: 2px; }\n#foogallery-gallery-39479.fg-justified .fg-image { height: 200px; }<\/style>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"foogallery foogallery-container foogallery-justified foogallery-lightbox-foobox fg-justified fg-ready fg-light fg-shadow-outline fg-loading-default fg-loaded-fade-in fg-caption-always fg-hover-fade fg-hover-zoom2 fg-no-js\" id=\"foogallery-gallery-39479\" data-foogallery=\"{&quot;item&quot;:{&quot;showCaptionTitle&quot;:true,&quot;showCaptionDescription&quot;:false},&quot;lazy&quot;:true,&quot;src&quot;:&quot;src&quot;,&quot;srcset&quot;:&quot;srcset&quot;,&quot;template&quot;:{&quot;rowHeight&quot;:200,&quot;maxRowHeight&quot;:300,&quot;margins&quot;:2,&quot;align&quot;:&quot;center&quot;,&quot;lastRow&quot;:&quot;smart&quot;}}\" style=\"--fg-title-line-clamp: 0; --fg-description-line-clamp: 0;\" >\n\t<div class=\"fg-item fg-type-image fg-loading\"><figure class=\"fg-item-inner\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/sud-est-forum.ro\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/A-scene-from-Heather-Lenz-new-documentary-Kusama-Infinity.-Photograph-Dogwoof-films.jpg?ssl=1\" data-caption-title=\"In this Nov. 21, 2017 photo, people view a polka-dotted room created by Japanese artist Yayoi Kusama, part of the exhibit, &quot;Yayoi Kusama: Festival of Life,&quot; on display at the David Zwirner gallery in the Chelsea section of New York.

Her cultural brand, as an eccentric aunt of pop art, confirms its historical significance and ignites the flame of its success on the art market.<\/p>\n<p>An important moment in the artist&#8217;s career was the 1993 Venice Biennale, and the exhibition at a gallery in New York, Robert Miller, where he presented the concept of &#8222;Infinity Nets&#8221; and flooded the room with sprawling sculptures.<\/p>\n<p>To the question who is Yayoi Kusama? we can answer with:<\/p>\n<p>-&#8222;His art can transport you into the quiet cosmos, into a lonely maze of pulsating light, or into what might be the cover of a measles leviathan.&#8221; (Claire Voon)<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; She hijacked the 33rd Venice Biennale in 1966 with Narcissus Garden, a lake of 1,500 reflective balls in which the viewer&#8217;s face was infinitely multiplied.

With an auction record of $ 7.9 million for one of his historic paintings from the 1959 &#8222;Infinity Net,&#8221; Kusama is the best-selling living artist in the world.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Kusama became increasingly popular in Japan in the 1980s, with gallery performances across the country, shows commissioned for television, and increased attention from museums. In preparation for a 1987 retrospective of the museum, she tried to intensify her story of origin by adding &#8222;Infinity Net&#8221; &#8211; style curls to the old watercolors she had stored in her family&#8217;s home. Art historian Midori Yamamura discovered this, as well as the artist&#8217;s gratitude for experiencing hallucinations as a child, a statement that Kusama introduced her biography only in 2010.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; The 2004 mega-exhibition at the Mori Art Museum in Tokyo, entitled &#8222;Kusamatrix&#8221;, marks a major transformation of the Kusama experience. Set on the Roppongi hills, the city&#8217;s most famous skyscraper, the Kusamatrix was visited by 520,000 people in three months. To a series of rooms with captivating mirrors and environments, &#8222;Kusamatrix&#8221; added giant fiberglass sculptures of dogs and children with dots. Director Takako Matsumoto sees this as a time when Kusama sells the obsession and advantage for love and cleanliness, or kawaii.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; By 2020, &#8222;My Eternal Soul&#8221; had reached over 600 canvases. &#8222;I want to paint 1,000 and 2,000 paintings. I want to continue painting even after I die, \u201dKusama said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; In the last six years, &#8222;Infinity Mirror Rooms&#8221; have become in museums what pandas are for zoos: a sure pleasure for visitors whose costs are justified by their popularity. Between 2014 and 2019, at least 11 international institutions purchased rooms. Broad, Tate, Hirshhorn and the Rubell Museum each purchased two. The Ontario Art Gallery raised $ 1.4 million through crowdfunding and pre-ticket sales.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<style type=\"text\/css\">\n#foogallery-gallery-39509 .fg-image { width: 150px;

her youth and forgotten in the USA once she left New York, Yayoi Kusama finally puts her art in a world that needs what it has to offer. Between political apathy, a mental health crisis of young people and the growing problems of loneliness caused by the compulsive use of technology, dissociation is growing. Whether it is the result of a psychological or neurological illness or more of an emotional and cultural detachment, we can benefit from the soothing self-forgetfulness that Kusama experiences when he creates. She is also an example of someone who has managed to overcome his personal difficulties to create something beyond demons.

historical.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>(Jasmine Gibson)<\/p>\n[foogallery id=\"39445\"]\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>An atomic bomb in art: Yayoi Kusama<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Once upon a time, people quoted Van Gogh&#8217;s life with intriguing shyness, this being an example of a brilliant and strange artist, who cut off his own ear, incomprehensible to contemporaries, dead in poverty. Compared to the Belgian painter, <a href=\"http:\/\/yayoi-kusama.jp\/\"><strong>Yayoi Kusama<\/strong><\/a>, it has a thousand times more fascinating and striking story, a saga about how a young Japanese woman conquered the whole world with her art. Today, at the age of 90, Yayoi is perhaps the most famous and richest woman in contemporary visual arts and perhaps in all of history.<\/p>\n<p>The artist&#8217;s artistic beginnings are in post-war Japan, when the passion for painting was intertwined with the turmoil of family life. Psychoanalysts explain his explosive and transgressive fantasies through the traumas of childhood when he had to endure a toxic family with a womanly father and a traveling life, along with a jealous mother, who took little Yayoi as a witness to domestic suffering. His mother was against art and tore up her drawings, but little Yayoi, with the stubbornness that had dominated her all her life, turned to compositions made of mud and old sacks. She later studied at the Kyoto School of Arts and Crafts, where the artist was drawn more to American abstract impressionism, as opposed to the traditional Japanese style of &#8222;nihonga&#8221; painting.<\/p>\n<p>In 1958, with money sewn into his clothes and a baggage of his paintings, he moved to New York, where he entered the role of modern art.<\/p>\n<p>Its beginnings are marked by anti-war social reactions, adherence to the &#8222;hippie&#8221; counter-culture, virulent street happening and relationships with American avant-garde artists. Towards the end of the 1960s, she attracted the public&#8217;s attention when she organized a series of events in which naked participants were painted with intensely colored dots.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n[foogallery id=\"39449\"]\n<p>Credit Photo: Gift of the Roy Lichtenstein Foundation in memory of &nbsp;Harry Shunk and J\u00e1nos Kender<\/p>\n<p>\u00a9 2020 Yayoi Kusama. Photograph: Shunk-Kender \u00a9 J. Paul Getty Trust. The Getty Research Institute, Los Angeles<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Very soon Yayoi&#8217;s creation intensified and diversified, his paintings and installations building an &#8222;op-art&#8221; universe (optic-art) with brutalist, pop, psychedelic tendencies. Along with the struggle for creation, her mental disorders intensified, which later led her to turn Yayoi into a permanent patient of a psychiatric hospital. Curator Mika Yoshitake said that Kusama&#8217;s works are meant to immerse the whole person in Kusama&#8217;s accumulations, obsessions and repetitions. These endless, repetitive works were originally meant to eliminate Kusama&#8217;s intrusive thoughts, but now he shares them with the world.<\/p>\n<p>These experiences seem unique to her work, as Kusama wanted others to sympathize with her in her troubled life. Bedatri D. Choudhury described how Kusama&#8217;s lifelong lack of control made her, either consciously or subconsciously, want to control how others perceive time and space as she enters her exhibits. This statement seems to imply that without her trauma, Kusama would not have created these works as well or perhaps not at all. Art had become a coping mechanism for Kusama.<\/p>\n<p>Yayoi recounted how he went to his native Japan to draw flower fields: \u201cI thought only people could talk, so I was surprised that violets used words. I was so terrified that my feet began to tremble. &#8222;This was the first of a series of disturbing hallucinations &#8211; she calls them depersonalizations &#8211; that haunted her childhood.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n[foogallery id=\"39464\"]\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Heather Lenz, the author of a documentary about Yayoi, said: &#8222;Kusama&#8217;s childhood trauma was essential to her work not only because of her difficult family, but also because of her society and the nightmare of World War II.&#8221; Art gave him the best catharsis, Yayoi himself states: \u201cI started making penises to cure my feelings of disgust with sex; My fear was of the guy hiding in the closet. I was taught that sex was dirty, shameful, something to hide. Complicating things even more was the whole discussion about good families and arranged marriage and the absolute opposition to romantic love &#8230; I also witnessed the sexual act when I was a child and the fear that went through my eyes went out inside me. &#8221;<\/p>\n<p>In March 1977 he was admitted to a psychiatric hospital. For some artists, this could have been the end of things, but for Kusama it was a new beginning. She found a way to manage her mania and direct it to her creativity. &#8222;A long time ago,&#8221; Kusama wrote back, &#8222;I decided that all I could do was express my thoughts through my art and that I would continue to do so until I died, even though no one would ever see the work. my. Today, I never forget that my works of art have moved millions of people around the world. &#8222;Kusama sleeps in the hospital every night and works in her studio across the street six days a week. Eat sushi at the local supermarket. She makes her own clothes. He seems to have little interest in the fortune that came to him late in life. She has a small team of assistants in her studio and gallery owners who take care of her interests in New York, Tokyo and London.<\/p>\n<p>The Internet gave Kusama this chance to &#8222;be everywhere&#8221; in ways she could not have imagined when she sat in her peony field as a girl. &#8222;I am determined to create the world of Kusama, which no one has ever made and never trodden,&#8221; she wrote.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n[foogallery id=\"39479\"]\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Kusama&#8217;s enormous popularity comes not only from the transformative experience of his daring art, but from her compelling personal narrative. Her cultural brand, as an eccentric aunt of pop art, confirms its historical significance and ignites the flame of its success on the art market.<\/p>\n<p>An important moment in the artist&#8217;s career was the 1993 Venice Biennale, and the exhibition at a gallery in New York, Robert Miller, where he presented the concept of &#8222;Infinity Nets&#8221; and flooded the room with sprawling sculptures.<\/p>\n<p>To the question who is Yayoi Kusama? we can answer with:<\/p>\n<p>-&#8222;His art can transport you into the quiet cosmos, into a lonely maze of pulsating light, or into what might be the cover of a measles leviathan.&#8221; (Claire Voon)<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; She hijacked the 33rd Venice Biennale in 1966 with Narcissus Garden, a lake of 1,500 reflective balls in which the viewer&#8217;s face was infinitely multiplied. She sold the balls for $ 2 each, the ad being &#8222;your narcissism is for sale,&#8221; a gesture that predicted the artwork as a selfie. The Biennale authorities stopped the show, opposing &#8222;the sale of art such as hot dogs or ice cream&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n[foogallery id=\"39488\"]\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;&#8211; launched a fashion line with Louis Vuitton (2012), perhaps the largest art and fashion collaboration in history, with thousands of showcases<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Collectors and museums compete to buy new pieces at seven-figure prices, while auction houses have sold more than $ 550 million worth of Kusama artwork over the past decade. With an auction record of $ 7.9 million for one of his historic paintings from the 1959 &#8222;Infinity Net,&#8221; Kusama is the best-selling living artist in the world.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Kusama became increasingly popular in Japan in the 1980s, with gallery performances across the country, shows commissioned for television, and increased attention from museums. In preparation for a 1987 retrospective of the museum, she tried to intensify her story of origin by adding &#8222;Infinity Net&#8221; &#8211; style curls to the old watercolors she had stored in her family&#8217;s home. Art historian Midori Yamamura discovered this, as well as the artist&#8217;s gratitude for experiencing hallucinations as a child, a statement that Kusama introduced her biography only in 2010.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; The 2004 mega-exhibition at the Mori Art Museum in Tokyo, entitled &#8222;Kusamatrix&#8221;, marks a major transformation of the Kusama experience. Set on the Roppongi hills, the city&#8217;s most famous skyscraper, the Kusamatrix was visited by 520,000 people in three months. To a series of rooms with captivating mirrors and environments, &#8222;Kusamatrix&#8221; added giant fiberglass sculptures of dogs and children with dots. Director Takako Matsumoto sees this as a time when Kusama sells the obsession and advantage for love and cleanliness, or kawaii.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; By 2020, &#8222;My Eternal Soul&#8221; had reached over 600 canvases. &#8222;I want to paint 1,000 and 2,000 paintings. I want to continue painting even after I die, \u201dKusama said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; In the last six years, &#8222;Infinity Mirror Rooms&#8221; have become in museums what pandas are for zoos: a sure pleasure for visitors whose costs are justified by their popularity. Between 2014 and 2019, at least 11 international institutions purchased rooms. Broad, Tate, Hirshhorn and the Rubell Museum each purchased two. The Ontario Art Gallery raised $ 1.4 million through crowdfunding and pre-ticket sales.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n[foogallery id=\"39509\"]\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; The current record for a Kusama camera at auction is $ 503,536, set in 2012, when Christie\u2019s London sold Infinity Mirrored Room &#8211; Love Forever, in 1994.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Its own museum in Tokyo, a five-storey business designed by Kume Sekkei, the building completed in 2014<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Misunderstood in Japan in her youth and forgotten in the USA once she left New York, Yayoi Kusama finally puts her art in a world that needs what it has to offer. Between political apathy, a mental health crisis of young people and the growing problems of loneliness caused by the compulsive use of technology, dissociation is growing. Whether it is the result of a psychological or neurological illness or more of an emotional and cultural detachment, we can benefit from the soothing self-forgetfulness that Kusama experiences when he creates. She is also an example of someone who has managed to overcome his personal difficulties to create something beyond demons. While everything she does is influenced by the way her mind works, by memories and traumas, often very painful but still turning into something positive.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n[foogallery id=\"39510\"]\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Pe vremuri oamenii citau via\u0163a lui Van Gogh cu sfio\u015fenie intrigat\u0103, acesta fiind un exemplu de artist genial \u015fi ciudat, care \u015fi-a t\u0103iat singur o ureche, ne\u00een\u0163eles de contemporani, mort \u00een s\u0103r\u0103cie.
