The Serralves Museum in Porto is hosting the exhibition "Yayoi Kusama: 1945 – Today", where you can learn about the life and work of this avant-garde artist who has become an icon of the 21st century.

Around 160 works organized chronologically and by theme, including drawings, sculptures, paintings, installations and archival material, show us her journey over nearly 70 years, which began when she was still a teenager and during a remarkable period in history: the Second World War. Not limited to inside the museum, the work will also be exhibited in Serralves Park, namely two of her best-known works: the yellow pumpkins with black balls and the "Narcissus Garden" (the steel pieces of different dimensions).

Her work, in addition to a very particular and creative aesthetic, is a reflection of a very personal philosophy of life, where we are faced with fundamental questions about existence.
