A fierce bidding battle ensued in the tense salesroom of #Sothebys Contemporary Evening Auction, in partnership with Celine, on 13 May 2024, over one of Yayoi Kusama's early masterpieces, 'The Pacific Ocean' (1958), ultimately fetching a staggering $3.8 million. Inspired by the rippling sea viewed from her airplane window, 'The Pacific Ocean' encapsulates Kusama's boundless creativity and serves as a poignant testament to her lifelong exploration of the personal and universal. With its intricate network of black forms resembling pebbles, 'The Pacific Ocean' offers viewers a glimpse into Yayoi Kusama's extraordinary mind.
