I love how you say ‘her’ art has been taken out of the physical and into the collective subconscious🎯

Absolutely love it. Less than a week ago, I was at Yayoi Kusama exhibition at M+, Hong Kong with a friend. Her works have blown me away. I cannot appreciate enough how Chris tells the story with his insights infused throughout. I sent it to a good friend who currently struggled in securing an opportunity to study in the US. In the message to my friend, I added, "the Yayoi Kusama story tells us, setback is temporary, class is permanent." I topped it off with Chris's line, "You are the author of your own story." I just want to let you know that, your videos empower people!

Thank you. Glad to hear.

That metaphor about one’s silhouette becoming an icon 💯💯💯

Great video! I love Kusama’s ideas, art, and hearing about her life. One of my favorite exhibits to witness. Absolutely love her work and philosophy. Plus, you added great tools for each of us to do if we want. ⭐️💕⭐️🌈🦋Thank you

For your mission towards education- this content is outstanding. Feels like learning at a university, but more captivating, and for free?! Would love more of this, and even a syllabus delving into all your teachings of material like this. Maybe structured in a KZread playlist or a section on the website? Keep it up everyone, bravo

It's a Ku...Kusama. 🎶 Leaving me here on my own.. 🎵 It's a cruel, cruel summer Now you're gone You're not the only one... The city is crowded, my friends are away And I'm on my own It's too hot to handle, so I got to get up and go It's a Ku, (ku) Kusama Leavin' me here on my own It's a cruel, (it's a cruel) cruel summer Now you're gone Gonna feel only it was... 🌞

I did a research paper on her in college. I love her work, her personal story is tragic but inspiring. Thank you for the video!

❤Love this one Chris! Especially the way you wove into to Kusama's story, the lessons we can apply to ourselves 🙏🏽 Also Vancouverites 🇨🇦🍁🇨🇦 here, - Chris will be doing his signature Personal Branding Workshop this 26 Aug 2023 in our city!! A lot of the concepts here will be taught by Chris himself and it'll be his signature framework that was part of the Euro/London tour that just finished. Tickets go on sale JUNE 2023, but comment if you're interested and I'll share the waitlist link. There's been a lotta excitement already and we have a very limited number of places, so get on it to reserve your spot😉

Actually, I don't know exactly what to write cause I'm blown away. THANK YOU, CHRIS! Thank you for being YOU, thank you for caring that much for others, helping others to find and understand their stories behind the story, thank you for being such an outstanding human being, creative, teacher, mentor, truthfinder, storyteller, deep thinker and so much or better many more.

I love Yayoi Kusama. Thank you for this insightful breakdown of her life and creative work :)

Great video! It’s really hard these days to stand out with the saturation of social media, but it’s important to stay true to you and your origin story and even if you think that your story is not interesting enough, someone out there for sure can relate.

Love this video! Great job! Thanks for telling her story!

I absolutely love this new content at the intersection with art! Looking forward to the next one!

Thank you for making this video. She is one of my hero artists, and understanding how she brand herself and her art is very helpful.

The dots remind me of the stars and galaxies that spread across the empty space of the universe.

Only if we had such entertaining teachers at school/college too. This is amazing, Kusama is indeed an inspiration.

This video is absolutely incredible! I’ll keep coming back to it for sure…so many gold nuggets in here ✨

ove these documentary-style videos! next level brother

This is so cool ! Great to hear this story love love love it ! Thank you for reminding and inspiring me !!!!!

Thank you buddy! Appreciate you!

There’s a documentary about her life that is worth watching. It’s interesting how bold and clever she was in NYC, yet she returned to Japan to spend the rest of her life living in a mental hospital, only to find career success in her elderly years. How aware is she of her own “brand” and career strategy and how much is she just doing what interests her or consumes her thinking? It seems like she’s lived a purely authentic life and that has attracted people to her work vs. a calculated brand strategy.

Love you CHRIS DO!

Wow ! What a captivating video about a captivating artist. I have been intrigued by Kusama for a long time. Thanks Chris. This is brilliant. Love love love it.

I knew about the Guerrilla Girls and their protests at MoMA, but not Yayoi Kusama's actions two decades before!

❤

When you are so far forward than your competitors, you just stick to your pursuit, pushing out more works the world cannot handle. I am drawing to the extent, my family cannot understand my passion for art. People are questioning me why. We cannot stop pursuing our dream, just because the world cannot understand us. Challenge.❤❤❤

For sure, her life work has been innovative BUT unfortunately, it hasn’t changed the world. The days of the Renaissance, where art could affect change, was most often based on religious art - that could instill the fear of going to an eternal world of hell. … those days are gone. Art, like the system it operates under - CAPITALISM - is about “what’s happening now.” There remain the few who continue to view art as a means of inner explanation and understanding - (for only big time art dealers and buyers) - but frankly, that’s the way it’s always been. Art , for the everyday world, is strictly commercialized - for those wanting to make a living you must be willing to be CONSUMED by consumers.

I think her art has had a huge impact on the world from consumer goods to the infinity rooms.

Racist woman; please explain to me what black gentiles smells like ?; Yayoi is quoted saying this among other things about black people

Is she gonna design my new super suit?
