Kusama has been a mainstay in the art world since breaking onto the scene in mid-1960s in New York. She presented her first solo show in her native Japan in 1952, and has since been known for her avant garde take on pop art and minimalism. Her art has been displayed through a wide range of mediums, spanning paintings, performances, room-size presentations, sculptural installations, fashion and more.
