2015 at 02:30 pm by admin | Comments Off
Popular Japanese modern pop artist Yayoi Kusama has just unveiled a brand-new exhibit of her famous dot-style artwork in Denmark! Located at the Louisiana Museum of Modern Art, her new exhibit, titled “In Infinity”, is her first comprehensive exhibit in the region, and coats the many walls of her show floor with a vast array of polka dots and mirrored installations. The effect creates the illusion of an infinite space, letting the viewers immerse themselves completely in Kusama’s artwork. The exhibit also features a number of Kusama’s sculptural work, which dots a number of the exhibits around the museum. The newly opened exhibit will remain at the Louisiana Museum of Modern Art until January 24th, 2016.
