All measured values are approximate.Outer frame size: 87.3 x 76.0 cm. All measured values are approximate. Signature: Yayoi Kusama Description: A visually commanding green-and-black Pumpkin composition associated with Yayoi Kusama's celebrated exploration of repetitive dots, organic forms, and net-like structures. The monumental pumpkin dominates the pictorial field, its segmented body articulated through dense sequences of black polka dots that vary in scale to create a strong sense of volume, curvature, and rhythmic movement. The surrounding black ground is traversed by an irregular network of vivid green lines, producing a dynamic contrast with the central pumpkin and reinforcing the repetitive visual language closely associated with Kusama's wider artistic practice. The reverse is written with ”YAYOI KUSAMA / 2004 / PUMPKIN.” Presented within an elaborate gilt frame with molded classical ornament, the work combines several of the most recognizable elements associated with Kusama's visual vocabulary. The pumpkin has remained one of the defining motifs of her career, embodying her longstanding engagement with repetition, pattern, organic form, and immersive surface treatment. Large-format painted pumpkin compositions possess particularly strong visual presence and continue to occupy an important position within the international market for Kusama's work.
