Fausto Gilberti - Yayoi Kusama

Viac o knihe

From Japan to America and back: in his new book, Fausto Gilberti gives voice to Yayoi Kusama, who tells her story in the first person. Born in Matsumoto, Yayoi has loved drawing since she was a child (even what others cannot see) and flies to New York to become an artist. Her art amazes the public with always new ideas: Yayoi fills large canvases with networks of dots, uses her happenings to convey important messages, designs clothes to wear in pairs… Creating her works makes her feel good, whatever their form: from the famous pumpkins to rooms filled with lights and mirrors that reflect everything infinitely. With Yayoi Kusama, the series in which the artist Fausto Gilberti narrates, with intelligence and a playful gaze, the work of great figures in contemporary art continues to grow.
