This month the Art Appreciation group saw the Yayoi Kusama exhibition at the National Gallery Victoria.
Yayoi Kusama is one of the world’s most celebrated living artists. Her polka-dotted pumpkin and flower sculptures are recognised globally, and her infinity mirror rooms are pivotal to the twenty-first century’s turn towards art as an immersive experience.
The group tried to view approximately 200 works of painting, sculpture, collage, fashion, film and installations. Alas the exhibition needs at least two visits to do it justice!
The next outing of the Art Appreciation Group is on May 12th to Bendigo to see the Frida Kahlo exhibition, so look out for the invitation.
