Yayoi Kusama Pumpkin And Flowers Art Vase/Handmade Dot Art Vase/Japanese Artist. Shipped with USPS. Size: 7”x4 1/2””x4 1/2”. Glass vase holds water, but probably better to use with silk flowers and clean with a damp cloth. 30+ unique pictures make up this decorative art vase. This is a wonderful piece to gift to an art lover, decorator, traveler, etc. Kusama wrote to Georgia O’Keefe for advice on becoming a woman artist and she advised her to go to NYC-which she did. Her ideas were bold, fresh and highly influential to the artists of that time. She invented soft sculpture when Claus Oldenburg was doing hard sculpture. She repeated the same image like wall paper in her installations- which Andy Warhol began doing after seeing her exhibition. She is a trailblazer and I find her empowering as a woman artist. Of course now she is a highly celebrated artist and has exhibited in major museums across the globe. Vase is by Julie Wishmeyer. Julie has a B.F.A. from The School of the Art Institute of Chicago.
