This comprehensive book delves into the diverse and pioneering career of one of the most experimental and influential artists of the 20th century. Spanning the entirety of Isamu Noguchi's artistic endeavors, including sculpture, ceramics, photography, architecture, design, as well as his playscapes, gardens, and stage sets for modern dance and theatre performances, this survey explores Noguchi's creative process, lesser-known aspects of his practice, his engagement with a wide range of mediums and cultures, and his groundbreaking achievements over six decades. Filled with stunning imagery and contributions from an international array of authors, this book provides readers with a comprehensive understanding of Noguchi's work, both in its original context and in gallery settings. Archival photographs of the artist's studios offer a glimpse into his experimental approach to sculpture. A series of essays delve into themes of harmony and dissonance, central to Noguchi's practice, considering his dual heritage, the Japanese American experience, his global travels, and the diverse influences that shaped his artistic vision. The monograph also pays tribute to Noguchi's fruitful collaborations with renowned creatives from various industries, such as R. Buckminster Fuller, Martha Graham, and Louis Kahn. Throughout the book, Noguchi's own words serve as a critical backdrop, shedding light on an artist who embraced multiple schools of thought and whose entire life and career exemplified partnership and cooperation across artistic, political, and cultural boundaries.
