Noguchi's long-adored, meditative autobiography returns to print, restored to its original specifications
Where all we see is change I like to think sculpture may have in this a special role--as an antidote to impermanence--with newness yes, but with a quality of enduring freshness relative to that resonant void, within us and without, wrote Isamu Noguchi: a standout sculptor of the 20th century and an influential believer in the medium. His prolific output of work included gardens, furniture, lighting, ceramics, architecture and set designs. However, it was sculpture that demonstrated his true mastery of formal qualities and techniques: simultaneously subtle and bold, traditional yet modern.
Isamu Noguchi (1904-88) was born in Los Angeles and raised in Japan before returning to the United States to study at the age of 13. His collaborations included furniture for Herman Miller and playground design with architect Louis I. Kahn. In 1985, Noguchi designed and opened the Isamu Noguchi Garden Museum (now the Noguchi Museum), in Long Island City, New York.
