Note (Content)"Yayoi Kusama is one of the most important post-war and contemporary artists, with exhibitions all over the world. Her work is not only of historical importance, it also appeals to a young and broad audience, and defies art concepts such as Minimal and Pop Art.This publication provides an overview of Kusama's earliest performative activities, staged especially for the camera, with previously unpublished photos.Naked and painted with dots, dressed in her self-designed fashion, posing in the streets of Amsterdam, in a time of an emerging sexual revolution.Written and visual accounts by eye-witnesses offer us a detailed insight into the colorful and erotic world of Yayoi Kusama for the first time, but also show us her particularly compelling, persuasive power to engage people in her universe"--
The Dutch Years traces the artists' history exhibiting and holding happenings in the Netherlands between 1960-1970; With Love from Holland consists of documentary photographs by Just Fahner and 10 other photographers depicting the artist and her happenings in the Netherlands during this period
