Enter an unforgettable universe of luminous color and endless reflections, only at SFMOMA!

Experience the kaleidoscopic world of Yayoi Kusama, one of the most iconic and globally celebrated artists working today. Kusama’s first solo presentation in Northern California encompasses two Infinity Mirror Rooms, including her newest room, Dreaming of Earth’s Sphericity, I Would Offer My Love (2023), a cosmos of dancing color and light.

LOVE IS CALLING (2013), the second room in the presentation — and one of Kusama’s largest and most immersive works — features a darkened environment illuminated by vividly colored inflatable forms that extend from the floor and ceiling accompanied by the sound of the artist reciting a poem about love.

The infinite awaits. Join us for this extraordinary experience.

This is a surcharged presentation and requires a timed ticket. Please note that all visitors, including teens and children, need their own timed tickets to this presentation.

Sensory Considerations: Experiencing Yayoi Kusama: Infinite Love involves being enclosed in a mirrored room. Each Infinity Mirror Room features a dark enclosed space with colorful light. This may cause disorientation and may not be suitable for people who are sensitive to light and/or dark spaces. Please find additional information about the experience in our Visitor FAQ.
