I haven't tried to order from that website, but when I was at the Louisiana museuem last month they had posters for sale from lots of previous exhibitions. I can see that they sell the poster you like on their website, but I don't speak Danish so I can't tell if they sell online or if they are just showing whats in the museum shop

butik.louisiana.dk/collections/louisiana-plakater/products/yayoi-kusama-guidepost-to-the-new-space-louisiana-plakat

It is an excellent musuem, and we had no queue for the Yayoi Kusama exhibit, plus plenty of time in it. Will go back again next time I'm in Denmark.

Don't take any offers on these until you get them appraised. 

Try the top 3 if your sending to auction and check the sold lots to get an idea. Best of luck with them

I lived ten years in Japan and I am a big fan of YK works.
I would def recommend anyone to check for authenticity first as a lot (a lot I insist) of fake ones are circulating all with amazing and unique stories always.

As for the one proposed, they look amazing ! Would love to send an offer if the price is reasonable and authenticity proven.
Thanks !

I know these posts are 2 years old but regarding the fakes...  It happened to a friend of mine some years back.  He travelled to Japan and ended up buying a Kusama print from a gallery (no idea what the name of the gallery was).  The print looked amazing, I would have never guessed it was a fake.  The image was a butterfly.  It was framed and enjoyed for some years.  Said friend decided to sell it.  The potential buyer did his due diligence prior to closing the deal and it turned out the print was a fake.  How they managed to determine it was, I have no idea.  I know both parties involved and they also knew each other so it wasn't a case of a stranger trying to pull a fast one (although the gallery in Japan sure did).  Tread carefully when it comes to Kusama prints.

Nice poster, I went to that show.

So did I.  Loved the exhibit.  The Museum itself was also very interesting in its layout and position, right by the sea.  The outdoor sculpture park was quite special.  The Giacometti Gallery, bathed in natural light from the windows that look out on the pond and greenery...  I loved the whole experience, even the train ride from Copenhagen to the museum.

Agree on all points!

From what I've seen/read on eBay, the fakes tend to ship without boxes too.

Yeah, the ones without boxes seem to be around £50-60 while the boxed ones are £150 upwards.

www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_nkw=kusama+pumpkin+paperweight

Lots of different box designs? 🤔 Some plain, some with different colours and printing designs? Are they fakes or have they just changed to packaging over the years.

[tonys]

they're fakes

[Tobi187]

Tons of fakes out there.

I´ve bought mine form the Moma Design Store and a friend had a bunch of fakes.
They almost looked identical but you could feel a difference in quality and weight...

I got a big old one from Tate modern but it’s parachute material not ceramic- but you know it’s real…

Thank you very much for your help!
I have contacted Benesse house

I'd be interested in knowing if they ship, especially as they have no online shop. The email address above is the Hotel I think. When I was there a month or so ago, they limit the number of sales now too.

I'm curious as to how much control Kusama now has over her own work...

Wow - mine arrived today..... only took 4 days to arrive (almost arrived before the money left my account). No need to post a photo as you all know what they look, but the buying/delivery process (DHL) was faultless from Moma.

I received mine as well, next day actually. I really like them - nice little pieces!

Hi all 
Bit of a long shot but if anyone is selling signed and numbered editions I am in the market for a few. Will consider anything really, the trippier the better. DM if you are selling, Thanks 

[Brittany's Urban]

One question, I have the Pumpkins from MOMA (yellow & red) & the one from Naoshima.
Any similar work in open edition that can be found somewhere?

Cheers!

£500 for the pair of these approximately here shipped to the UK

Unsure who’s been looking for then but it’s a good price
