The international art world is abuzz with anticipation as a truly remarkable work goes under the hammer in Hong Kong on May 25. It is Yayoi Kusama's "Infinite," a nearly 2-meter-high abstract painting that has never been publicly displayed since its completion in 1995.
This groundbreaking work marks a historic moment as the first piece in auction history to seamlessly blend Kusama’s iconic "Infinity Nets" and "Polka Dots." With an estimated sale price of 40 million Hong Kong dollars (around $5.1 million), this masterpiece is poised to be one of the most significant art sales of the year.
