Titled “I Spend Every Day Embracing Flowers,” the exhibition displays an extensive array of Kusama’s artistic mastery, including paintings, installations, sculptures, and more. Among these works is the crowd-favorite “Infinity Mirror Room,” as well as both old and new creations themed around pumpkins and flowers.
