The Artwork of the Month – Yayoi Kusama – The Flowering Shinano Road (1999)
We are pleased to present this month The Flowering Shinano Road (1999), a vibrant and highly collectible screenprint by Yayoi Kusama—one of the most influential and internationally celebrated artists of the 20th and 21st centuries.
The composition embodies Kusama’s unmistakable visual language: dense repetition, hypnotic rhythm, and immersive organic forms. Soft floral shapes in vivid pink and acid green drift across layered greys, while the surface vibrates with countless dot-like marks that recall her iconic Infinity Nets and polka-dot universes. The result is both meditative and dynamic—an image that oscillates between decorative refinement and psychological intensity.
Printed as a screenprint on paper in 1999, this work belongs to a limited edition of only 100 impressions and is hand-signed by the artist. Produced during a pivotal period of Kusama’s mature career, it reflects the synthesis of her psychedelic sensibility with a controlled compositional complexity that has become central to her enduring global recognition.
Measuring 59.7 × 47.7 cm (23½ × 18¾ in.), the artwork offers a balanced and versatile format, suitable for both contemporary interiors and curated print collections. The piece is in excellent condition and remains well preserved, maintaining the vibrancy and precision of the original edition.
Now available, The Flowering Shinano Road (1999) represents a rare opportunity to acquire a hand-signed limited edition by Yayoi Kusama from a highly sought-after series of late-1990s graphic works. Combining obsessive repetition, floral biomorphic forms, and immersive surface treatment, the print stands as a powerful example of Kusama’s singular artistic universe.
