We are pleased to introduce two yellow pumpkins by Yayoi Kusama from our private sale.
Needless to say, “Pumpkin” is Yayoi Kusama’s well-known representative motif.
“Yellow Pumpkin” is particularly popular above all.
| The iconic Yayoi Kusama yellow pumpkin on Naoshima is back after typhoon
Yayoi Kusama’s Yellow Pumpkin sculpture was swept up in a tropical storm last August.
The artwork has returned to Naoshima, one of Japan’s art islands in the Seto Inland Sea. It has been restored to its original setting, on the edge of an old pier, where it has been perched since 1994.
Naoshima is full of unique installations by famous contemporary artists. Of all the projects on the island, however, no piece is quite as iconic as Yayoi Kusama’s bright yellow pumpkin sculpture, which has become something of a trademark of Naoshima since its installation.
