Pumpkin (L) framed print | Yayoi Kusama Framed Print | Yayoi Kusama Prints

Pumpkin (L) framed print by Yayoi Kusama — Pumpkin (L) is part of a motif Kusama has explored across paintings, prints and sculptures. The familiar rounded shape carries personal resonance, but each identified version deserves attention in its own right.

Why one pumpkin is never just another

The filename points to Pumpkin (L), the 2014 bronze sculpture offered at Sotheby’s Hong Kong in 2023. This poster presents its imagery on paper rather than reproducing the three-dimensional material of the original.

The strength of a single recognizable silhouette

The monumental gourd form, marked by Kusama’s familiar rhythmic surface pattern, makes the organic subject appear both sculptural and surreal.

Pumpkin (L) invites a close look at how Kusama keeps returning to a form that is humble, familiar and extraordinarily flexible. The pumpkin's weighty, rounded body establishes a sense of physical presence, while repeated markings can make that body seem visually animated. The L designation matters because the individual artwork should not be collapsed into an undifferentiated group of pumpkin images.
