This is the catalogue published in conjunction with the solo exhibitions by Yayoi Kusama in Tokyo, Kyoto, Hiroshima city, Kumamoto and Matsumoto City from 2004 to 2005.

Kusama has always been trying to cross the borders between 'art and life' or 'art and society' with her vision arising from her mind, to restore the world filled with sturdy liveliness from microcosm to macrocosm. In today's world where our surroundings have been thoroughly fragmented and systematized, Kusama's art will open our eyes to something that can never be fragmented - love, life, and the universe.

The exhibition included Kusama's magnificent paintings and sculptures after the 1980s, recent installations of light and objects, as well as earlier masterpieces.

Artist biography and bibliography are included.
