Explore the world of artist Yayoi Kusama in this lively, interactive lift-the-flap book for children ages 0-3.

Pumpkins, polka dots, flowers, and so much more! Yayoi Kusama creates art that's bursting with colour and creativity, bringing "never-ending joy" to children. Her playful and vibrant masterpieces are perfect for young artists who love to explore and have fun with colours and shapes.

Kusama's radiant world invites young imaginations to run wild, offering endless possibilities for creative expression. With her signature bold patterns, she encourages kids to embrace their own unique artistic voices.

The What Artists Make series of lift-the-flap books, geared toward children under the age of three, shares the different ways artists view the world. In each book, one artist's unique method of making or outlook on creativity is explored through rhythmic sentences and photographs of artworks selected to delight and inspire. Beneath the flap, a short explanation of the artist's practice provides added context, allowing adults to engage with the art on a deeper level and to share the knowledge with their children.

About the Author

Yayoi Kusama's (b. 1929) work has transcended two of the most important art movements of the second half of the twentieth century: pop art and minimalism. Her highly influential career encompasses paintings, performances, room-size presentations, outdoor sculptural installations, literary works, films, fashion, design, and interventions within existing architectural structures, which allude at once to microscopic and macroscopic universes.

Doro Globus is a writer, editor, and publisher specializing in creative culture, with a focus on arts publishing. Her first book, Making a Great Exhibition, is a fun inside look at the life of an artwork, from studio to exhibition. A passionate advocate for sharing creativity, Globus has dedicated her career to telling stories of artists and writers. She is Associate Publisher of David Zwirner Books and has worked in arts publishing for nearly twenty years. She has written about artists and art historians including Dawn Ades, Michael Bracewell, Fred Wilson, and Bridget Riley.
