If you happen to be in Buenos Aires between now and September 16th, please don't miss this Exhibition of Yayoi Kusama's work.  A Japanese artist who began painting in polka dots when she was ten years old, influenced Andy Warhol and has been living in a psychiatric clinic at her own request since 1977.  This Exhibition titled "Infinite Obsession" (Obesesion Infinita) is a retrospective of her work, including installations, paintings, works on paper, videos, sculptures and slide shows.

What a great place this is!  An incredible set of resources available on the American Furniture Designers and Manufacturers!!!  We'll be sharing some of the great "stuff" we've found while researching for documentation on the period.  Keep on looking and I'll try to post something new every day while here.
