Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden presents Yayoi Kusama at Fairchild now on view through May 30, 2010. Japanese artist Yayoi Kusama is known for her distinctive sculptures and paintings that involve hand-worked repetition and bold patterning. Three groupings of work exhibited: the exuberant new sculptural ensemble Flowers that Bloom at Midnight, vividly painted, giant cast flowers between 5 and 16 feet in height; a group of her classic Pumpkins; and a multi-part floating work entitled Guidepost to the New Space, specifically conceived for Fairchild, consisting of rounded forms in fire-engine red with white polka dots protruding from one of Fairchild's large garden ponds. This will be the first time anywhere in the world that all these sculptures have been shown together in an outdoor setting. "Yayoi Kusama at Fairchild" is part of an annual exhibition series in support of the Garden's conservation work and educational and outreach programs. Fairchild is open daily (except Christmas) from 9:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Admission is $20 for adults, $15 for seniors, $10 for children 6-17 and free to Fairchild members and children 5 and under.
