About Pumpkin

The artwork, titled “Pumpkin,” was created by the artist Yayoi Kusama in 1983. It is a sculpture that falls within the Art Brut and Pop Art movements.

The artwork depicts a stylized pumpkin, characterized by its vibrant yellow color adorned with a multitude of black polka dots. This choice of color and pattern is a hallmark of Kusama’s unique artistic style. The tactile texture of the pumpkin’s surface and its organic, slightly irregular shape contribute to its visual appeal. The top of the pumpkin is capped with a black stalk, which also bears the polka dot pattern, thereby maintaining a cohesive design aesthetic throughout the sculpture. The artwork exudes a sense of whimsy and surrealism, merging everyday objects with abstract artistic expression.
