Yayoi Kusama: Infinity Mirror Rooms is presented in The George Economou Gallery. This exhibition is in partnership with Bank of America, with additional support from UNIQLO. The exhibition has been extended with additional support from Bank of America.
Due to overwhelming public demand, Tate Modern today announces a one-year-extension of Yayoi Kusama: Infinity Mirror Rooms. One of the most celebrated artists working today, the exhibition features two of Yayoi Kusama’s major installations alongside fascinating early documentation of her experimental performances and a recent sculptural work continuing her interest in infinite space. The show will now run until 11 June 2023.
Yayoi Kusama: Infinity Mirror Rooms opened to the public in June 2021, following the reopening of UK museums and galleries after lockdown. The ongoing demand for tickets has been exceptional, however social distancing measures in place throughout the show’s run have meant far fewer visitors have been able to visit than originally intended. Extending the exhibition for another year will help meet the huge public appetite to see Yayoi Kusama: Infinity Mirror Rooms and enable a further opportunity to experience these extraordinary installations.
Ticket prices will remain the same and will continue to be released on a quarterly basis. Further information about the exhibition can be found here. The next ticket release will take place next week, with details on timings on Tate’s website here.

About the Arts at Bank of America
At Bank of America, we’re guided by a common purpose to help make financial lives better, through the power of every connection. We’re delivering on this through responsible growth with a focus on our environmental, social and governance (ESG) leadership. ESG is embedded across our eight lines of business and reflects how we help fuel the global economy, build trust and credibility, and represent a company that people want to work for, invest in and do business with. It’s demonstrated in the inclusive and supportive workplace we create for our employees, the responsible products and services we offer our clients, and the impact we make around the world in helping local economies thrive. An important part of this work is forming strong partnerships with nonprofits and advocacy groups, such as community, consumer and environmental organizations, to bring together our collective networks and expertise to achieve greater impact.

Speaking about their extended partnership with Tate Modern on Yayoi Kusama: Infinity Mirror Rooms, Andrea Sullivan, International Head of ESG, said: “Kusama is an inspirational artist who brings light and colour back in to our lives. It is against this backdrop that Bank of America is particularly grateful for its partnership with the Tate over the past decade. We know the arts really matter – they bring people together and foster understanding. For this exhibition we supported a community programme with Tate, engaging hundreds of young people from diverse backgrounds by providing group interaction, learning, and work placements. We hope that this first hand engagement with the arts will spark passion and inspire the next generation of creative thinkers and collaborators.”
