The Fukushima Prefectural Museum of Art will open an exhibition of Yayoi Kusama’s prints on July 18, 2026. Titled 'Yayoi Kusama - The World of Prints: Repetition and Multiplication,' the show will present approximately 160 works and trace Kusama’s printmaking practice from early lithographs to recent pieces.
According to the museum’s announcement, the exhibition is designed to show the breadth of Kusama’s expressive world through the development of her print techniques. The selection spans a wide period of her career, bringing together early and recent works in one presentation and emphasizing the role of repetition and multiplication in her visual language.
Kusama is one of the most widely recognized contemporary artists, and printmaking has long been one of the formats through which her imagery has circulated internationally. This exhibition focuses specifically on that medium, offering a concentrated view of how her ideas have been translated into prints across time rather than through sculpture, painting or installation.
The Fukushima Prefectural Museum of Art, based in Fukushima, Japan, will host the exhibition at its own venue. The institution’s announcement identifies the museum as the site for the presentation and gives the opening date as July 18, 2026.
No closing date was provided in the source material. The museum describes the exhibition as encompassing about 160 print works, including both early lithographs and more recent examples, under the title 'Yayoi Kusama - The World of Prints: Repetition and Multiplication'.
