How to paint like Yayoi Kusama – with Corey D'Augustine | IN THE STUDIO

Learn how to paint like artist Yayoi Kusama, a vital part of New York’s avant-garde art scene from the late 1950s to the early 1970s, with IN THE STUDIO instructor Corey D'Augustine. Yayoi Kusama developed a distinctive style utilizing approaches associated with Abstract Expressionism, Minimalism, Pop art and Feminist art. “I am an obsessional artist,” she once said. “People may call me otherwise, but…I consider myself a heretic of the art world.” Learn about the techniques of other New York School painters like de Kooning, Rothko, and Pollock in MoMA's new free, online course, "In the Studio: Postwar Abstract Painting."
