MoMA Celebrates Yayoi Kusama With ‘Narcissus Garden’ Snowglobes

August 26, 2019. Leave a Comment

New York-based MoMA continues its ongoing merch partnership with Japanese artist Yayoi Kusama with news of a pair of artful snowglobes.

One of the globes features a yellow version of Kusama’s signature dotted pumpkin, while the second globe features a miniature version of the artist herself as surround by reflective silver spheres that moves in waves when the globe is shaken.

The silver sphere snowglobe is an ode to her “Narcissus Garden” project, first presented in 1966 at the 33rd Venice Biennale, at which Kusama stood among a crowd of mirrored spheres dressed in a gold kimono alongside signs reading “Your Narcissism for Sale.” A similar version of the piece was installed during summer 2018 at MoMA PS1 with a display containing 1,500 mirrored stainless steel spheres. 

Priced at $180 for non-members and $162 for museum members, both globes are now available on store.moma.org.
