Absolutely love it. Less than a week ago, I was at Yayoi Kusama exhibition at M+, Hong Kong with a friend. Her works have blown me away. I cannot appreciate enough how Chris tells the story with his insights infused throughout. I sent it to a good friend who currently struggled in securing an opportunity to study in the US. In the message to my friend, I added, "the Yayoi Kusama story tells us, setback is temporary, class is permanent." I topped it off with Chris's line, "You are the author of your own story." I just want to let you know that, your videos empower people!
Actually, I don't know exactly what to write cause I'm blown away. THANK YOU, CHRIS! Thank you for being YOU, thank you for caring that much for others, helping others to find and understand their stories behind the story, thank you for being such an outstanding human being, creative, teacher, mentor, truthfinder, storyteller, deep thinker and so much or better many more.
For your mission towards education- this content is outstanding. Feels like learning at a university, but more captivating, and for free?! Would love more of this, and even a syllabus delving into all your teachings of material like this. Maybe structured in a TH-cam playlist or a section on the website? Keep it up everyone, bravo
Great video! It’s really hard these days to stand out with the saturation of social media, but it’s important to stay true to you and your origin story and even if you think that your story is not interesting enough, someone out there for sure can relate.
Great video! I love Kusama’s ideas, art, and hearing about her life. One of my favorite exhibits to witness. Absolutely love her work and philosophy. Plus, you added great tools for each of us to do if we want. ⭐️💕⭐️🌈🦋Thank you
Wow ! What a captivating video about a captivating artist. I have been intrigued by Kusama for a long time. Thanks Chris. This is brilliant. Love love love it.
❤Love this one Chris! Especially the way you wove into to Kusama's story, the lessons we can apply to ourselves 🙏🏽 Also Vancouverites 🇨🇦🍁🇨🇦 here, - Chris will be doing his signature Personal Branding Workshop this 26 Aug 2023 in our city!! A lot of the concepts here will be taught by Chris himself and it'll be his signature framework that was part of the Euro/London tour that just finished. Tickets go on sale JUNE 2023, but comment if you're interested and I'll share the waitlist link. There's been a lotta excitement already and we have a very limited number of places, so get on it to reserve your spot😉
It's a Ku...Kusama. 🎶 Leaving me here on my own.. 🎵 It's a cruel, cruel summer Now you're gone You're not the only one... The city is crowded, my friends are away And I'm on my own It's too hot to handle, so I got to get up and go It's a Ku, (ku) Kusama Leavin' me here on my own It's a cruel, (it's a cruel) cruel summer Now you're gone Gonna feel only it was... 🌞
There’s a documentary about her life that is worth watching. It’s interesting how bold and clever she was in NYC, yet she returned to Japan to spend the rest of her life living in a mental hospital, only to find career success in her elderly years. How aware is she of her own “brand” and career strategy and how much is she just doing what interests her or consumes her thinking? It seems like she’s lived a purely authentic life and that has attracted people to her work vs. a calculated brand strategy.
Thanks for sharing! Just a quick off-topic question: I have USDT in my OKX wallet and I have the recovery phrase. (pride)-(pole)-(obtain)-(together)-(second)-(when)-(future)-(mask)-(review)-(nature)-(potato)-(bulb). What is the best way to transfer them to Binance?
When you are so far forward than your competitors, you just stick to your pursuit, pushing out more works the world cannot handle. I am drawing to the extent, my family cannot understand my passion for art. People are questioning me why. We cannot stop pursuing our dream, just because the world cannot understand us. Challenge.❤❤❤

For sure, her life work has been innovative BUT unfortunately, it hasn’t changed the world. The days of the Renaissance, where art could affect change, was most often based on religious art - that could instill the fear of going to an eternal world of hell. … those days are gone. Art, like the system it operates under - CAPITALISM - is about “what’s happening now.” There remain the few who continue to view art as a means of inner explanation and understanding - (for only big time art dealers and buyers) - but frankly, that’s the way it’s always been. Art , for the everyday world, is strictly commercialized - for those wanting to make a living you must be willing to be CONSUMED by consumers.
she helped paved the way for female visual artists all over the world. it was extremely difficult for female artists to be taken seriously when she was young. i also love her art and looking at it makes me happy
I love how you say ‘her’ art has been taken out of the physical and into the collective subconscious🎯

I did a research paper on her in college. I love her work, her personal story is tragic but inspiring. Thank you for the video!
That metaphor about one’s silhouette becoming an icon 💯💯💯
I absolutely love this new content at the intersection with art! Looking forward to the next one!
More to come.
Love this video! Great job! Thanks for telling her story!

It's a Ku...Kusama. 🎶
Leaving me here on my own.. 🎵

The city is crowded, my friends are away
And I'm on my own
It's too hot to handle, so I got to get up and go

Leavin' me here on my own
It's a cruel, (it's a cruel) cruel summer
Now you're gone
Gonna feel only it was... 🌞
This comment has got right out of hand 🎶

God please don’t let me die holding myself back because my family; the struggle is real and stops many Artist dead in their tracks
The dots remind me of the stars and galaxies that spread across the empty space of the universe.
I Can't thank you enough.. it's perfect

@@thefutur I am a Holistic therapist and your advice has helped me enormously over the years
The origin story...character, desire and conflict
Bro you probably want to take your praise back; she is really racist towards black people.A lot of comments talking about how black people are inhuman

good question. wrong channel.

I like to eat pumpkin; pumpkin pie, baked pumpkin, pumpkin chips... 😋
I like bacon. I is bacon king 🤴 🥓
❤
Nothing holds without gravity 😅
I knew about the Guerrilla Girls and their protests at MoMA, but not Yayoi Kusama's actions two decades before!
The individual and the ego? The individual IS the ego.

I thought Marlene Dumas is the most expensive living female artist

I think her art has had a huge impact on the world from consumer goods to the infinity rooms.
she helped paved the way for female visual artists all over the world. it was extremely difficult for female artists to be taken seriously when she was young. i also love her art and looking at it makes me happy
(Standin Ovation Emoji)
Racist woman; please explain to me what black gentiles smells like ?; Yayoi is quoted saying this among other things about black people
Is she gonna design my new super suit?
Nothing holds without gravity 😅
