Art fireworks in Hanover: Niki, Kusama and Murakami united!
Hannover, Deutschland - On January 9, 2025, the Sprengel Museum Hanover opens the doors for the exhibition "Niki. Kusama. Murakami. Love You for Infinity". This significant show is dedicated to the donation of over 400 works by Niki de Saint Phalle to the museum in 2000. The exhibition combines works by Niki de Saint Phalle, Yayoi Kusama and Takashi Murakami and presents a diverse thematic span on over 2,000 square meters. You can see Saint Phalle's "shooting pictures" and "Nanas", Kusama's "Infinity Room" installations and Murakamis characteristic wall wallpapers.
The curators Stefan Gronert, Reinhard Player, Nora Niefanger and Talia Walthe show how the different artistic manuscripts of the three artists have similarities and differences. The topics of the exhibition include joie de vivre, existential threats, feminism, female self -assertion and male dominance.
