The National Museum of Art, Osaka, is currently hosting a wonderful exhibit, which features work by noted Japanese artist Yayoi Kusama.
Entitled "Eternity of Eternal Eternity," the exhibit shows the most recent works of Yayoi Kusama and runs through April 8.
Kusama has always been a quirky, unusual character. She had hallucinations as a child - hints of mental illness - and began painting in her teens.
Since then, she has continued to create her signature net and polka-dot patterned works.
Kusama became world famous during her fifteen years spent in New York, from 1957 until the early 1970s.
The National Museum of Art, Osaka, is a fabulous facility. It is located close to Nakanoshima, the narrow island that runs through central Osaka. It is an easy ride from both Umeda and Shinsaibashi.
