Yayoi Kusama: Mirrored Years
27 Sep 2009  - 07 Feb 2010

Yayoi Kusama: Mirrored Years
Following an 11 month building development, City Gallery Wellington will reopen on 27 September with a solo exhibition of internationally renowned Japanese artist, Yayoi Kusama.

Mirrored Years allows New Zealanders the rare opportunity to experience the strange and dizzying world of this avant-garde artist and her trademark polka dots.

A sculptor, painter, film producer and fashion designer, Kusama exhibited with Andy Warhol in 1960s New York and vied with him for position of the most publicised artist of the era. She is also famous for her exhilarating room-sized mirrored installations, which allow the viewer a breathtaking experience of infinity.

Kusama is a national treasure in Japan and is hugely revered globally. Her original, wildly imaginative patterns and forms have influenced younger generations of artists in Japan and elsewhere. She continues to develop and create her art at her Tokyo studio and recently produced 50 new print works for inclusion in this exhibition.

Yayoi Kusama: Mirrored Years is a partnership with Museum Boijmanns van Beuningen, Rotterdam, and the Museum of Contemporary Art, Sydney. It is curated by Jaap Guldemond (Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen), Franck Gautherot, Kim Seungduk (Le Consortium, Dijon), with additional works selected by Paula Savage ( Director, City Gallery Wellington) and Judith Blackall (Artistic Director, MCA, Sydney).

Principal Sponsor: Ernst & Young Supported by Asia New Zealand Foundation and the Japan Foundation.

City Gallery Wellington will also reopen with three new gallery spaces and a new auditorium as part of its $6.3 million building development
