“Kusama’s work is challenging, gorgeous, and quite varied in its formal approaches. She doesn’t rely on gimmicks; in fact, she’s one of the finest artists of her generation. Heather Lenz has made a loving respectful film about a subject well worth documenting. If you love art, this is a must-see.”- Marc Glassman, POV Magazine
Kusama: Infinity explores artist Yayoi Kusama’s journey from a conservative upbringing in Japan to her brush with fame in America during the 1960s (where she rivaled Andy Warhol for press attention) and concludes with the international fame she has finally achieved within the art world. Now in her 80s, Kusama has spent the last 30 years living in a mental institution in Japan.
DRINK SPECIAL: INFINITEA
The Infinitea cocktail is inspired by the polka–dotted art explosions by the artist Yayoi Kusama, featured in the new documentary KUSAMA: INFINITY. Made with Matcha cold brew, Tito’s vodka, simple syrup, sparkling water, and garnished with alcoholic strawberry boba, it’s the perfect cocktail to help you ‘revolve in the infinity of endless time and the absoluteness of space’. The cocktail will be featured all month long.
