The Museum of Contemporary Art Shanghai will host the touring Yayoi Kusama exhibition “A Dream I Dreamed,” opening on December 15.
The exhibition will feature over 100 pieces, including paintings, sculptures, installations, and documentary film footage. It brings together works previously shown at the Tate Modern, Centre Pompidou and the Whitney Museum.
Born in Nagano in 1929, Kusama rose to prominence in New York in the 1960s. She returned to Japan in 1973, moving into the Seiwa Hospital for the Mentally Ill, where she continues to live. Now in her ’80s, Kusama is the world’s highest paid living female artist, and is still creating new works.

The show is curated by Kim Sun Hee, who also collaborated with MoCA Shanghai in a 2012 group show of works by Japanese, Korean and Chinese artists entitled “Nostalgia: East Asia Contemporary Art Exhibition.”
Highlights of the upcoming show include huge red balloons with white polka dots entitled “Dots Obsession” (2013), several “infinity mirror rooms”, the 1,500 stainless steel sphere work “Narcissus Garden” (2013), dotted tentacles entitled “The moment of Regeneration” (2004), and the signature yellow-and-black “Great Gigantic Pumpkin” (2013).

Another work to look forward to is the video “Manhattan Suicide Addict” (2010), which takes its name from Kusama’s 1978 novel.
The exhibition previously showed at the Daegu Art Museum and the Seoul Arts Center, and will continue on to Taipei.
