This book is absolutely gorgeous. I didn't know many of the artist's works before I bought this book - and it gave me a good understanding of her life and work. Chock full of beautiful colour photos. It's cool too because so many quality art books cost a fortune, but since this one is a softcover it's reasonably priced. As you can tell, I HIGHLY recommend this book.

I am an American living in Japan at the moment. While on a Japanese tour, I came across a documentary for Kusama while flipping through stations at the hotel. I did not know anything about her until this documentary. She intrigued me. Kusama's work is genius. My 7 year old grandson loves contemporary art. I bought and sent the book to him so he could see a Japanese artist's love and work. He is delighted with the book.He loves the colors and design which is her trademark. I am happy to have gifted him something from and about Japan he will appreciate for sometime.

I love this artist, she is such an innovator, she rocks my world and as a young Japanese canadian artist i am highly influnced by her.
