I, Who Have Arrived In Heaven


This weekend I  emerged from Yayoi Kusama's Infinity Room in the David Zwirner Gallery a new person. Calmer, feeling like i had truly just arrived in heaven. The exhibit on 19th Street in Chelsea employs 45 seconds in a mirror-lined room hung with 75 colored LED bulbs that flicker and pulse in an other-wordly experience. I discovered that on a normal day , about 2,500 people venture on this brief trip to Ms. Kusama’s private cosmos.  It's one of those experiences that no hard-won adjectives can express, you must see it's ethereal beauty for yourself. I highly suggest anyone is planning on visiting NYC over break to take a little pitstop at the David Zwirner Gallery since it's free admission and the exhibit is underway until mid December, but do make sure to get there in the AM since the lines are spilling into the streets halfway into the afternoon!
