From Central Park to Louis Vuitton, the Yayoi Kusama brand beyond the polka dots (1929-2026)

The Japanese artist Yayoi Kusama, known as the "Queen of Polka Dots," died at 97 in Tokyo. Born in 1929, she transformed the hallucinations she suffered since childhood into a prolific body of work spanning painting, sculpture, performance, literature, and poetry, becoming a key figure of psychedelia and one of the most important artists of the 20th century. After graduating in traditional Japanese painting in Kyoto, she emigrated to the United States in the 1950s, where she gained international recognition and influenced contemporaries such as Andy Warhol. In New York, she staged anti-war protests in Central Park and collaborated twice with Louis Vuitton, in 2012 and 2023. She returned to Japan in 1973 due to mental health issues, voluntarily committing herself to a psychiatric institution in 1990, from where she continued to create. She received numerous awards, including the Praemium Imperiale in 2006, and left a legacy that will be preserved by her company.
