MUSIC
Great Hall, 6pm–10pm

Tanzer is a musician, artist, DJ & creative director based in Melbourne, Australia. With a perfectly-lacquered finger in the world of music, art, fashion and beauty, Tanzer’s adventures often combine all four; flawlessly tying disco, 90s dance, Euro soundtracks and ‘space opera’ vocals into DJ sets, music releases and art installations all around the world.

YAYOI KUSAMA, THE EXHIBITION

Yayoi Kusama (b. 1929) is one of the world’s most important and provocative living artists. Active for over eight decades, her work has contributed to key art movements including minimalism, pop art and feminist art in the United States, Europe and her native Japan, transcending borders to establish a global presence. 

Curated by the NGV in collaboration with the artist especially for Melbourne audiences, Yayoi Kusama is the largest ever exhibition of the artist’s work in Australia and one of the most comprehensive ever presented globally. The exhibition includes many works never-before-seen in this country as well as a diverse display of immersive rooms, including the global unveiling of the artist’s most recent kaleidoscopic infinity mirror room. The exhibition features close to 200 works spanning painting, sculpture, collage, fashion and installation drawn substantially from the artist’s personal collection.

Yayoi Kusama is divided into two parts, and your NGV Friday Nights ticket gives you unlimited access until 10pm. This means you can experience the exhibition at your own pace, with music, bars and dining in the Great Hall and Garden at your leisure.
