The japanese artist Yayoi Kusama, the Queen of dots, is today 83 years old.
Art, fashion, cinema or literature, Yayoi explored a large kind of (experimental) art between 1958 and 1973, while living in New York.
Considered immediately as avantgardiste, she was a forerunner for pop and environmental art. Her work is strongly visual and always invited the public to experience intense visual emotions.
Later she decided to return to Japan.
Her saying “I painted boredom, which is more important in life than the sunlight the Impressionists painted” seduced this time Marc Jacobs for an exciting collection at Louis Vuitton.
