(“You can’t eradicate violence by using more violence,” she once wrote in an open letter to Richard Nixon, then President of the United States.) In her writings since then, she has empathized with victims and the oppressed. Many have drawn comparisons between Kusama’s airmail sticker works and the rows of images that Andy Warhol screen printed. Aucune informations personnelles n'est recueillies.

Sometimes, this is done through the bringing together and arranging of one kind of object—for some of her most famous works in the series, she laid out airmail stickers in neat rows, creating eye-popping patterns that, from far away, look like more orderly versions of the all-over compositions of the Abstract Expressionists.

The meaning of these works is oblique—Zelevansky, the curator of the MoMA show, has claimed they may even have alluded to eating disorders—but for Kusama, they were another expression of her obsessions. “I don’t consider myself an artist; I am pursuing art in order to correct the disability that began in my childhood,” Kusama once said, referring to her mental illness. Just a year and a half after her arrival, Kusama had her first U.S. solo show, at New York’s Brata Gallery, where she exhibited white-on-white paintings that seemed to barely even be there.Kusama wrote that she intended the white paintings to be “like a bomb,” and judging by the reviews, the critics heard the explosion.

But the series reached its high point with sculptures featuring ready-made objects festooned with phalli.Many curators and critics agree that there are feminist undertones—overtones, according to some—in these phallus works. When Kusama first arrived in New York in 1958 from Tokyo, where she had experienced commercial success, she brought with her around 2,000 works on paper.
