Thank you for your support. Your generosity will enrich the lives of our community and will ensure future generations experience all the NGV can offer.
We invite you to join us and grow the NGV Collection by securing a major acquisition by iconic artist Yayoi Kusama titled, Narcissus Garden, 2024. Presented as part of this Summer's Yayoi Kusama, exhibition, Narcissus Garden greets every visitor to the NGV and will eventually be housed in The Fox NGV: Contemporary, Australia’s newest and largest home of contemporary art and design.
Consisting of 1,400 stainless steel spheres, each 30 cm in diameter the installation is as poignant for audiences today as it was when first conceived by the artist almost sixty years ago, and famously staged unofficially at the 1966 Venice Biennale. Narcissus Garden is a definitive work in Yayoi Kusama’s career and an important acquisition for the NGV Collection.
We warmly invite you to make a donation and are sincerely grateful for contributions of any size. Thank you for your support and contributing to the NGV Collection.
