The New York Times learned about Yayoi Kusama’s new museum from the website, Spoon & Tamago. Here’s what they said late last week:
Yayoi Kusama, one of Japan’s most prolific and successful artists, is opening her own museum in Tokyo’s Shinjuku ward. The 5-story structure will open to the public on October 1st, 2017. Very little was known about the tall white structure when it was originally completed in 2014 by Kume Sekkei. […] Without any explanation, the Yayoi Kusama Museum, along with a new website, announced that the museum was now ready to open.
