NYC: R. Castellane Gallery, 1964 57 x 40cm, b/w offset lithographic exhibition poster with a photomontage design by Kusama of the artist in an installation full of padded shapes and with dotted dresses and a naked mannikin. This was the American version of the installation which incorporated works from her Sex-Obsession, Food-Obsession and Compulsion Furniture (bumps and lumps and pasta). The show was also recreated slightly differently in Milan in the same year. This is a very rare vintage poster which has been folded four times for storage and unfortunately has on the reverse, in one panel, vintage ink doodles and phone numbers by an unknown hand. The poster side is near fine and there is no show through from the ink annotations. All vintage Kusama ephemera is rare.
