Podcast appearances and mentions of Yayoi Kusama

The 97-year-old artist captivates with her infinity rooms of polka dotted gourds.

2026 feiert das Museum Ludwig sein 50-jähriges Jubiläum – und hat dafür eine ganz besondere Sonderausstellung auf die Beine gestellt: die Werke der Künstlerin Yayoi Kusama. Seit März läuft die Ausstellung, und der Andrang ist riesig. Die regulären Tickets sind schon seit Wochen ausverkauft. KulturImpuls-Redakteurin Sara war in der Ausstellung und weiß, warum diese so viele Menschen begeistert.

Punkte, Spiegel und unendliche Räume: Die Werke der Künstlerin Kusama sind mehr als perfekte Fotomotive. Für Yilmaz Dziewior, Direktor des Museum Ludwig in Köln, ist ihre Ausstellung ein umfassendes Erlebnis, auch wegen ihrer historischen Arbeiten. Reinhardt, Anja www.deutschlandfunk.de, Kultur heute

60.000 Menschen singen im Olympiastadion, Jochen guckt aus dem Fenster auf zwei Pferde in der Wallonie. Diesmal reisen die beiden wegen der Kunst. Michi war bei den Foo Fighters in Berlin, dem größten Konzert der Band auf deutschem Boden, und Jochen erzählt von seinem Treffen mit Dave Grohl und dass Paul McCartney auch irgendwie dabei war. Dann geht's zum angesagtesten Museums-Besuch des Jahres ins Kölner Museum Ludwig zu Yayoi Kusama, der japanischen Künstlerin, die Reisende vielleicht von ihrem weltberühmten Kürbis auf der japanischen Insel Naoshima kennen. Und es wird auch mal unbequem, wenn Michi die Schattenseiten der laufenden Fußball-WM thematisiert - verbunden mit einem Podcast-Tipp. Am Ende bleibt eine Weekender Card und eine Frage, deren Antwort persönlicher wird als gedacht: allein reisen oder zu zweit?—Unsere Werbepartner findet ihr hier.Mehr Reisen Reisen gibt es bei Instagram.Abboniere unseren Newsletter unter https://www.reisenreisen.info/p/newsletterFoto-Credit: Thomas Rabsch Instagram—MUSIKFoo Fighters — US-Rockband um Dave Grohl (früher Schlagzeuger bei Nirvana); ihr Berliner Olympiastadion-Konzert 2026 war ihr bislang größtes Konzert auf deutschem Boden.

Today we're chatting with Rachel Koffsky Parker, Senior Vice President and International Head of Department for Handbags and Accessories at Christie's auction house — one of the most recognized voices in the global luxury handbag market and, an auctioneer herself, having taken handbag sales in New York, London, Geneva, and Hong Kong. After internships at the Met and the Walters Art Museum in Baltimore, Rachel found her way to Christie's in 2014, just as handbags were becoming a formalized auctionhouse category. Since, she has helped build the handbag category from the ground up, growing into what is now one of the most strategically important departments in the house — responsible for bringing in 12% of all new Christie's clients and selling in excess of forty million dollars in handbags worldwide last year alone. Over the last decade plus, she's brought the first single-owner handbag collections to market in both Milan and Paris, set world auction records for Hermès, Chanel, Louis Vuitton, and Gucci, and helped transform the way an entire generation of collectors thinks about handbags — not just as accessories, but as objects with history, rarity, provenance, and serious investment value. On today's episode, we get into all of it: how she built her expertise by cataloging up to a hundred bags a week, what actually drives value at auction, the record-breaking lots that still give her chills, and why a little wear and patina has gone from a liability to a badge of honor in the eyes of today's collectors. All that and more! Let's dive right in! DISCUSSED IN THE EPISODE: [4:00] Rachel grew up obsessed with Lucky Magazine, loving all things fashion and handbags.  [6:35] How her love of luxury handbags led to a career in the auction house.  [9:16] The first Christie's auction to include handbags was in 1978, but it wasn't until 2014 that handbags became a formalized category at the house.  [10:25] Handbags now bring in 12% of all new Christie's clients, making it one of the most strategically important departments in the house.  [12:20] Christie's customers began to understand handbags as an asset class.  [18:06] What drives pre-sale estimates, and what provenance means in the auction world   [23:55] Christie's world-record handbag auctions [31:43] Current trends on the secondary luxury market  [36:17] The upcoming Christie's luxury week sale with over 250 lots  [38:10] What goes into producing an auction  [40:32] Rachel's Holy Grail lot  [42:22] The personal pieces Rachel will never part with  EPISODE MENTIONS:  Christie's @christiesinc @christieshandbags Yayoi Kusama x Louis Vuitton pumpkin bag  Hermès Kelly Doll  Upcoming Handbag auction: 28 May to 11 June.  LET'S CONNECT: 

Probablemente el nombre de Yayoi Kusama no les suene de nada. Y puede que se queden como mínimo extrañados cuando vean sus obras. Pero el trabajo de esta mujer es uno de los mejores ejemplos del poder sanador del arte. Sus pinturas y esculturas son pura terapia contra la ansiedad y la depresión. Y nuestro Artesano ha venido a enseñarnos cómo nos pueden ayudar.

Zwart. Pikzwart. Gebroken zwart. Gebrand zwart met een likje houtskool. Zomaar een greep uit het kleurenpalet waar je als drager van een metalbandshirt uit kunt kiezen. Waar artiesten in andere genres nog weleens een poging wagen tot diversificatie, blijft het gemiddelde metalshirt doorgaans steken in een smörgåsbord aan clichés die thematisch verbonden worden door dood en verderf. Een herkenbaar en krachtig imago, zou je denken. Maar is dat ook zo, of is de metalscene vooral slachtoffer van zijn eigen beperkte blik op zijn koopwaar? In een nieuwe aflevering van Osmium werpen Pim en Niels een kritische blik op de voors en tegens van het merchaanbod binnen de metalscene. Daarbij blijft geen steen onomgekeerd: van de eenvormigheid van bandshirts tot de verzamelwoede rond kunstmatig gecreëerde schaarste. Zoals het een gedegen analyse betaamt, ontbreekt ook een uitstapje naar de K-popwereld niet, inclusief termen als ‘biaswrecker', en wordt de vraag gesteld hoeveel verschillende edities van dezelfde plaat een rationeel mens eigenlijk nodig heeft. Uiteraard wordt er in de zwaarste podcast in het Nederlands ook weer een drolletje gedraaid, zoals de traditie voorschrijft. Ditmaal wordt Revolution Calling aan de schandpaal genageld. Nadat de legendarische band Kickback als blikvanger werd aangekondigd, bleek al snel dat de ideologische signatuur van de band niet bepaald kosjer te noemen is. Zaken als pedofilie, homohaat en fascisme boteren, zacht gezegd, niet bepaald met het inclusiviteitsbeleid van het punk- en hardcorefestival. Hoewel Kickback inmiddels van de line-up is verwijderd, was daar eerst een stevige PR-nachtmerrie voor nodig. Met beeldmateriaal van Frido Stolte en muziek van Darude en Käärijä. Onderwerpen: Darude - Sandstorm (00:00) Introductie over gelijktijdige onafhankelijke vakanties naar Finland (00:15) Innovatie in merchandising door K-pop artiesten ontdekt in Stockholm (05:15) Toelichting van het onderwerp: merchandise in de metalscene en daarbuiten (09:53) Aantrekkingskracht van exclusiviteit en verzamelen, of de weerzin ertegen (10:32) Merchandise als financieel fundament van bandboekhouding (17:05) Moet het altijd een album of kledingstuk zijn? (19:46) Herkenbaarheid en stagnatie van metalmerch (24:56) Personalisatie als ontwikkelpunt voor merchandise (26:23) Trends in de metal- en hardcorescene (32:51) Zorgt innoverende merchandise voor een ongezonde relatie tussen volger en artiest? (40:25) Metalmerch moet breder verkrijgbaar worden (44:29) Bonusonderwerp: Revolution Calling ging even in de mist met Kickback (46:39) Luistertip van Niels: Angine de Poitrine - Vol. II, Niels kruipt alvast achter het stuur van de hypetrein voor deze nerveuze mathrockband met stippels (01:04:00) Luistertip van Pim: Angel Du$t - COLD 2 THE TOUCH, door Pim meermaals afgeschreven en meermaals omarmde punkband heeft weer een opleving (01:10:51) Concerttip van Niels: Ashenspire op Samhain in Antwerpen en in dB's te Utrecht, red anarchist avant-garde black metal - ofwel een der favorieten van Niels (01:17:08) Concerttip van Pim: vijf Utrechtse concerten rondom het paasweekend met Thy Catafalque, Bong-Ra, Hexvessel, Aluk Todolo, Panopticon, Sunken, Hellripper, Schizophrenia, Ashenspire en Machukha (01:18:57) Shout-outs (01:21:12) Links: Artikel in Franse media over Kickback en Revolution Calling Ashenspire op Samhain en in dB's Thy Catafalque en Bong-Ra in dB's Hexvessel en Aluk Todolo in dB's Panopticon en Sunken in de Helling Hellripper en Schizophrenia in de Helling Frido Stolte (The View Photography)

#148 Looking for fewer regrets? In this episode of the Everyday Bucket List Podcast, we're diving into something we don't always say out loud: travel regrets. The trips we postponed. The experiences we assumed we'd "get to someday." The bucket list ideas we quietly ghosted. But here's the good news — skipped dreams don't disappear. They wait. And sometimes, all it takes is one decision to turn regret into action. You'll hear about: Karen's regret about missing the Yayoi Kusama exhibit at the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden — and how she turned it around by planning a trip to see it at the Buffalo AKG Art Museum Why spontaneous stops like Niagara Falls in winter can become unexpected bucket list highlights How positioning a trip around the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum in Cooperstown proves that meaningful experiences don't require weeks off A reminder that bucket list ideas aren't just about destinations — they can center around art, concerts, sporting events, or once-in-a-lifetime natural phenomena This episode of the Everyday Bucket List Podcast is about shrinking regrets in real time. It's about noticing that quiet nudge — the one that says, "I could still do that" — and choosing to move. The journey begins with an honest reflection on missed opportunities and the subtle weight of "someday." It continues with a proactive decision to plan around what truly matters — whether that's an art exhibit, a natural wonder, or a small-town museum filled with nostalgia. Along the way, you'll hear how quick action transformed hesitation into gratitude, how winter travel created a quieter and more powerful experience at Niagara Falls, and how stacking meaningful stops into one trip maximized both time and memories. Because the fastest way to shrink a regret? Move.

"Saturday Mornings Show” host Glenn van Zutphen and co-host Neil Humphreys spotlight a landmark moment in Singapore’s art scene with Emi Eu, Executive Director of the Singapore Tyler Print Institute (STPI), and Nathaniel Gaskell, Director of Exhibition Programming and Content Development. Together, they introduce STPI’s inaugural Print Show & Symposium Singapore, launching during Singapore Art Week from 22–31 January. The Print Show celebrates the lineage, evolution, and future of printmaking, featuring works by 27 contemporary artists including Jeff Koons, Louise Bourgeois, Yayoi Kusama, Takashi Murakami, David Hockney, Rirkrit Tiravanija, and Do Ho Suh. Their prints reveal how collaboration between artists, printers, and publishers has shaped the medium across generations. Complementing the exhibition is a two‑day symposium, The Politics of Print: elephant in the room, curated by Stephanie Bailey. With six panels and 25 influential voices—curators, museum directors, artists, and market leaders—the symposium explores print’s role in shaping art histories, radical movements in Asia, and its collision with digital innovation.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Hoy me acompaña Pedro Oliveira da Costa, General Manager del MOCO Museum Barcelona, para hablar de su modelo de museo y su misión de acercar el arte al gran público. Hablamos sobre cómo surgió el proyecto y por qué eligieron Barcelona como una de sus sedes. También comentamos cómo se consigue el equilibrio entre ser un destino visualmente atractivo y ofrecer una visita con contenido y rigor así como la relación del museo con los artistas locales y el rol que tiene un general manager en todo ello.Recorremos la colección que reúne nombres como Basquiat, Banksy, Yayoi Kusama, KAWS, Warhol o Haring, y debatimos sobre la idea de ser museo de arte accesible que busca conectar con las nuevas generaciones.MOCO Museum se inauguró en el Palau Cervelló del Born en Barcelona en 2021. Recibe al año más de medio millón de visitantes y junto con sus sedes en Amsterdam y Londres se ha convertido en un fenómeno en redes sociales.

Ob Spiegelräume oder Kunstwerke mit Punktmustern: Die japanische Künstlerin Yayoi Kusama prägt die zeitgenössische Kunstszene seit Jahrzehnten. Auch mit 96 Jahren ist sie noch produktiv. Die Fondation Beyeler widmet ihr nun als erstes Schweizer Museum eine Retrospektive. Yayoi Kusama lebt schon ihr halbes Leben freiwillig in einer psychiatrischen Einrichtung in Tokio. Sie steht exemplarisch für das heute allgegenwärtige Thema Mental Health. Ihren Traumata und Zwängen begegnete Kusama, indem sie grossformatige Malereien mit repetitiven Mustern und Strukturen schuf. Die unendlichen Spiegelräume sind genauso ihr Markenzeichen wie die Polka Dots – eine Vielzahl Punkte gemalt auf Leinwand – oder menschliche Körper. Längst ist Kusama auch ein Phänomen der Pop-Kultur – zwischen Genialität und Selbstvermarktung. Zu erleben aktuell in der Fondation Beyeler in Riehen.

“In the place where penitents stand, even the completely righteous cannot stand.” Berakhot 34B Last week we encountered this Talmudic teaching which privileges the struggle, the growth, the journey, the learning, of the person who realized they were not living their best life, and they embarked upon teshuvah to live a better life. This week we are going to double click on this teaching that prizes struggle and growth in two ways. One, what are the ideas behind it? We will see the perspectives of an arch rationalist (Maimonides), the Hasidic master Rebbi Nachman of Bratslov, and the founder of the Chabad-Lubavitch movement, the Alter Rebbe, who authored a work called The Tanya. Each has a different interpretation as to why struggle and growth are prized. Two, what does artwork that celebrates this kind of struggle and growth look like? We will examine works of Yoko Ono, Wish Tree, Frida Kahlo, The Two Fridas, and Yayoi Kusama, Infinity Mirrors. What do each of these works of art say about the journey of the soul that is teshuvah? May Shabbat Shuvah, and the teshuvah we each do in this season, bring us ever closer to the person we hope to become.

"Niki. Kusama. Murakami. Love You For Infinity" - so heißt die neue Ausstellung im Sprengel Museum Hannover. Drei Ikonen der Gegenwartskunst werden hier vereint und treten in den Dialog. Was für Niki de Saint Phalle die Nanas sind, können für Yayoi Kusama die Polka-Dots und für Takashi Murakami die ikonischen Emoji-Flowers sein. Die Drei zeichnen sich aus durch farbintensive Gestaltungskraft und klare Statements zu Liebe, Sexualität, utopischem Denken oder existentieller Angst. Ihre Werke werden im Sprengel Museum in einer atemberaubenden Schau erstmals zusammen gezeigt. Flankierend zur Ausstellung wird an die großzügige Schenkung vor 25 Jahren erinnert, als Hannover mehr als 400 Werke von Niki de Saint Phalle erhielt und seitdem die weltweit größte Sammlung der Künstlerin beherbergt. Über ein ambitioniertes Ausstellungsprojekt spricht der Direktor des Sprengel Museums, Reinhard Spieler, mit Claudia Christophersen in NDR Kultur à la carte.

Yayoi Kusama knew she wanted to be an artist from the first time she experienced a hallucination as a child. Her world of colors, dots, and infinite possibilities could not be contained within her head. So, she left her hometown in Japan to pursue a life in art in the United States. Through her signature art style, Yayoi has challenged gender norms, made sense of her visions, and brought a fantastical world of wonder to life. This podcast is a production of Rebel Girls.

Yayoi Kusama (1929 - present) is a contemporary Japanese artist working across painting, sculpture, film, and installation. She has produced a body of work formally unified by its use of repetitive dots, pumpkins, and mirrors. She has been acknowledged as one of the most important living artists to come out of Japan, the world's top-selling female artist, and the world's most successful living artist. Her work influenced that of her contemporaries, including Andy Warhol and Claes Oldenburg. For Further Reading: An Introduction to Yayoi Kusama Yayoi Kusama by Grady T. Turner Yayoi Kusama’s extraordinary survival story This month we're talking about Outsiders -- women who marched to the beat of their own drum and rejected stereotypes about what women "should" be. They are aesthetic pioneers, norm-benders, and often the only woman in their field. History classes can get a bad rap, and sometimes for good reason. When we were students, we couldn’t help wondering... where were all the ladies at? Why were so many incredible stories missing from the typical curriculum? Enter, Womanica. On this Wonder Media Network podcast we explore the lives of inspiring women in history you may not know about, but definitely should. Every weekday, listeners explore the trials, tragedies, and triumphs of groundbreaking women throughout history who have dramatically shaped the world around us. In each 5 minute episode, we’ll dive into the story behind one woman listeners may or may not know–but definitely should. These diverse women from across space and time are grouped into easily accessible and engaging monthly themes like Educators, Villains, Indigenous Storytellers, Activists, and many more. Womanica is hosted by WMN co-founder and award-winning journalist Jenny Kaplan. The bite-sized episodes pack painstakingly researched content into fun, entertaining, and addictive daily adventures. Womanica was created by Liz Kaplan and Jenny Kaplan, executive produced by Jenny Kaplan, and produced by Grace Lynch, Maddy Foley, Brittany Martinez, Edie Allard, Carmen Borca-Carrillo, Taylor Williamson, Sara Schleede, Paloma Moreno Jimenez, Luci Jones, Abbey Delk, Adrien Behn, Alyia Yates, Vanessa Handy, Melia Agudelo, and Joia Putnoi.

Nathalie Obadia « L'art contemporain ; Des esprits conquérants » (Le cavalier Bleu)L'art contemporain, tel qu'il est apparu depuis la fin des années 60, est indissociable des logiques de mondialisation et de softpower qui fédèrent de multiples acteurs et autant de figures majeures au service de la création et de sa diffusion.En premier lieu, les artistes avec des figures comme Gerhard ­Richter, Louise Bourgeois, Damien Hirst ou Yayoi Kusama, mais aussi les curat­ors dont Harald Szeemann est un précurseur et la Cheikha Hoor Al Qasimi une incarnation des sensibilités du Sud Global, les galeristes avec Larry Gagosian et Marian Goodman, les foires dont ­l'emblématique Art Basel incarnée par Marc Spiegler, des collectionneurs comme François Pinault ou Uli Sigg, sans oublier celles et ceux qui ont œuvré à la muséification de l'art contemporain comme ­Suzanne Pagé ou Renzo Piano qui lui a créé ses plus lumineux écrins.Partant de sa double expertise de galeriste et d'enseignante, ­Nathalie Obadia nous présente ici les figures majeures de l'art contemporain et nous permet de saisir leur étroite imbrication et interdépendance.Musique: "Hymne à l'amour" Edith Piaf Hébergé par Ausha.

It's MIAMI art fair week - we are ready for Art Basel, Untitled, NADA and more! We meet legendary art collecting family THE RUBELL'S!!!! Mera, Don and Jason!!!Don and Mera Rubell started collecting in 1965 while living in New York, acquiring their first work after a studio visit and paying on a modest weekly installment plan. The Rubells grew their collection by looking at art, talking with artists, and trusting their instincts. Their son, Jason Rubell, joined them in 1982 in building the collection, extending the multigenerational family passion for discovering, engaging, and supporting many of today's most compelling artists. The Rubells moved to Miami in 1992, and together with Jason and their daughter, Jennifer, began developing hotels and an art foundation and museum to house and publicly exhibit their expanding art collection.Since the Rubells' first acquisition, they've amassed one of the most significant and far-ranging collections of contemporary art in the world, encompassing over 7,700 works by more than 1,000 artists—and still growing. The collection is further distinguished by the diversity and geographic distribution of artists represented within it, and the depth of its holdings of works by seminal artists.The Rubells are drawn to emerging and underrecognized artists. They were among the first to acquire work by now-renowned contemporary artists, including Jean-Michel Basquiat, Cecily Brown, Keith Haring, Rashid Johnson, Hayv Kahraman, Jeff Koons, William Kentridge, Yoshitomo Nara, Cindy Sherman, Yayoi Kusama, Kara Walker, Purvis Young, and Mickalene Thomas, among many others. They continue to vigorously collect by visiting studios, art spaces, fairs, galleries, biennials, and museums, and by talking with artists, curators, and gallerists. If the work grabs them, they dig deeper—conducting intensive research before they welcome it into their collection.Jason Rubell started collecting contemporary art in 1983 at the age of 14, acquiring the painting Immigrants from then-emerging George Condo via Pat Hearn Gallery. At first supporting his collecting habit by stringing tennis rackets, Jason's early support of artists grew into a life-defining passion. Jason's studies at Duke and experience with organizing and touring the exhibition of his collection were instrumental in the Rubell family's decision to open their collection to the public, ensuring it would serve as a broader resource for audiences to encounter contemporary art and the ideas it explores. In 1993, the Rubells' passion became their mission when they opened the Rubell Family Collection/Contemporary Art Foundation in Miami's Wynwood neighborhood. The establishment of the RFC pioneered a new model for sharing private collections with the public and spurred the development of Wynwood as one of the leading art and design districts in the U.S. After nearly 30 years, the collection relocated to the Allapattah neighborhood in December 2019 and was renamed the Rubell Museum to emphasize its public mission and expanded access for audiences. The opening of the Rubell Museum DC in October 2022 further deepened the family's commitment to sharing their collection as a public resource, providing opportunities for residents and visitors of the nation's capital to engage with today's most compelling artists.Follow: @RubellMuseum on Instagram.Vanessa Raw: This is How the Light Gets In, the Rubell's Artist in Residence for 2024 opens on December 2nd.Visit: http://rubellmuseum.org/ Hosted on Acast.

Today I talked with Stijn Vanheule about Why Psychosis Is Not So Crazy: A Road Map to Hope and Recovery for Families and Caregivers (Other Press, 2024). Are we all a little crazy? Roughly 15 percent of the population will have a psychotic experience, in which they lose contact with reality. Yet we often struggle to understand and talk about psychosis.  Drawing on his work in Lacanian psychoanalysis, Stijn Vanheule seeks to answer this question, which carries significant implications for mental health as a whole. With a combination of theory from Freud to Lacan, present-day research, and compelling examples from his own patients and well-known figures such as director David Lynch and artist Yayoi Kusama, he explores psychosis in an engaging way that can benefit those suffering from it as well as the people who care for and interact with them.
