Since its opening in 2014, the Frank Gehry-designed Fondation Louis Vuitton has showcased artists including Joan Mitchell, Andy Warhol, and Yayoi Kusama. Among the highlights was Kusama’s signature ‘Infinity Mirror Room’ in 2019. The installation crystallises the fantasies of the artist she has had since childhood, where she was totally obsessed with peas. It’s a dizzying immersion into a completely otherworldly hallucination. The mirrors reflected into infinite, creating an overwhelming sense of endlessness.
All the digital events will be made available from the Fondation’s Facebook page, YouTube channel, and its website, of course. Follow #FLVfromhome on Instagram, Twitter, YouTube, and Facebook so you don’t miss out the latest updates.
