If you are in Stockholm, I would advise you to go and see Yayoi Kusama at Moderna Museet! It's only until the 11th of September though. Of course, you have to like psychedelic obsessive art (or lines and  polka dots, like me). I had already seen one of her infinity installation at the Louisiana Museum in Denmark. I also saw a dot installation at the Tate Modern in London before that and really like it all.This exhibition is an amazing retrospective of her work and life. Installations are fantastic as usual but there are also paintings and movies of her provocative actions earlier in her career. Yayoi Kusama is a peculiar artist. I really like her work and the mental influence in her art. It's also a very easy exhibition to go see with kids. Mine really enjoyed it! If you don't have the luxury to go see it or want to be convinced a bit more, click on read more (don't worry, I'm not showing it all):I have a thing for her infinity rooms and her polka dots obsessions:She is there in many forms, films and texts. But for this one, Lily thought it was her for real:She had also many other obsessions in the past, like food and protuberances. She thought she was seeing the world as a massive field of protuberances. She also had a phase with food. In one of her exhibition in New York in the 60s, she filled a room with pasta and people had to walk on it and really disliked it (well, except the Belgian commentator of the movie telling the story. He really though it was cool, sacré belges!):Another advantage of going to that exhibition is that you get to go to Moderna Museet. That means crossing a bridge with really nice surroundings and later see that arty Island called Skeppsholmen where the museum lies:All in all, I just love that museum:Hope you have the chance to see it!
