Set of Two Polka Dot Pumpkins (LARGE SIZE, PLUSH, RED WHITE & YELLOW BLACK)

**APC ART is pleased to present this stunning pair of Yayoi Kusama plush pumpkins — the *Large Set of Two* (Red/White and Yellow/Black).**

Yayoi Kusama (b. 1929, Japan) is one of the most important and influential artists of the modern era. Her obsessive use of polka dots, bright color palettes, and immersive installations have redefined the boundaries between art, fashion, and psychology. Kusama’s impact on contemporary art is immeasurable — her works are housed in major museums around the world, including MoMA (New York), Tate Modern (London), and the National Museum of Modern Art (Tokyo). 

Her pumpkin motif — representing growth, comfort, and the repetitive nature of existence — has become one of the most iconic images in modern art. Kusama’s market continues to surge, with major works achieving *multi-million-dollar auction results* at Sotheby’s, Christie’s, and Phillips, confirming her as one of the most collected living artists globally.

Designed in 2004, these limited plush pumpkins are quintessential examples of Kusama’s world — whimsical, pop-infused, and unmistakably her. Each work is crafted from nylon and polyester, signed via stitched label on the underside, and presented in its *original packaging*. Measuring approximately *6 inches x 9.45 inches (15.2 cm x 24 cm)*, these larger variants perfectly capture the joyful presence of Kusama’s famous large-scale installations — now in an accessible, collectible form.

The *yellow/black* and *red/white* pumpkins are quintessential Kusama — bright, bold, and instantly recognizable. They embody her exploration of infinity, self-obliteration, and the hypnotic repetition of form. The pumpkins’ polka-dot patterns have become synonymous with Kusama’s visual language — a universal symbol of optimism and endurance.

Kusama’s collector base includes international institutions, high-profile private collectors, and major cultural figures. Her works consistently hold value and continue to appreciate due to her timeless relevance and limited output of collectible objects.

**These are brand new examples, in pristine condition, and will ship immediately from the USA.** 
Both pumpkins are from a *limited edition series* and are offered as a set (can also be sold individually upon request). 

**THESE YAYOI KUSAMA PUMPKINS ARE A PIECE OF CONTEMPORARY ART HISTORY.**

**OFFERED EXCLUSIVELY BY APC ART**
