Yayoi Kusama at the Whitney
Took the girls to the Yayoi Kusama show at the Whitney. Kiki liked the “bubbles”.
Hana gives Kiki a tour of the Accumulations room. “Look over there. Chair. Shoes.
Don’t go over the line.”
No New York retrospective of a Japanese artist would be complete without giant
inflated balls (cf. Takashi Murakami).

Installation Views
And here’s the show! This is the view as you enter the Main Gallery. (Somehow I only managed to snag these blurry shots, ack. The lighting is way nicer IRL, too.)
The view from the opposite corner of the space. (Conference of the Birds is off-camera, to the left.)
This is the Project Space, showing Matt’s Blood Meridian drawings (left) and Pink Meteor prints (right).
There’s also a Reading Room, where Matt’s and my minicomics are available to peruse; and a Screening Room,
showing Amy Lockhart’s animated short The Collagist (featuring artwork by Marc Bell). The shows all go well
together, and the space is beautiful. Yay!
The Install, Day 2
Day 2 of the install. The cavalry has arrived!
Me and Matt putting the finishing touches on the Road of Knives wall. Not too shabby.
Kiki approves of the gallery space.
The Install, Day 1
Got to Minneapolis 2 days before the opening.
I was worried about filling up the large space in the main gallery, but I think it turned out alright. The wall o’
Road of Knives was the trickiest bit…
So far, so good!

Seen on the way back from Home Depot. (The attempt to custom build a table for exposure unit was a failure.)
