A TRIBUTE TO THE LEGENDARY ARTIST YAYOI KUSAMA
I am deeply saddened by the passing of Yayoi Kusama, one of the greatest artists of contemporary art.
A true living legend, she shaped her life and work with extraordinary freedom, imagination, and vision, leaving an indelible mark on the art world over the past decades.
It has been a great honor for everyone at Louis Vuitton to have collaborated with her on two occasions in 2012 and 2023. Her boundless creativity and singular vision have always been an immense source of inspiration.
On behalf of Louis Vuitton, I extend my heartfelt condolences to her family, her loved ones, and all those who had the privilege of working alongside her. Her extraordinary legacy will continue to inspire generations to come.
Pietro Beccari, Louis Vuitton’s Chairman and CEO
