“I think it's great marketing and I think it, I think it just changes the brand for a louis (Vuitton). You know, it brings it to a different level."

93-year-old Kusama is best known for her obsessive, dot-covered art and pumpkin motifs

”I believe the moon is a polka dot, the sun is a polka dot, and the universe is polka dots. With this idea, I have been seeking my existence. Since my childhood, polka dots and infinity net have been themes of my art."
