Isamu Noguchi: Master Sculptor

$29.95 (paperback)
In this 240-page catalogue, the main essay by Dr. Valerie Fletcher situates Noguchi’s sculptures in the context of their time, notably the artist’s utopian aspirations, his relationship to Surrealism, his daring sexual themes and his remarkably prescient globalist approach. Additional essays by Dana Miller, associate curator at the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York, and by Bonnie Rychlak, curator of the Isamu Noguchi Foundation Museum, address Noguchi’s relevance for land art of the 1970s and his relationship to Zen.

Composed of works by an international roster of 16 artists, this acquisition substantially strengthens the Hirshhorn’s holdings of art from this period. This catalog accompanies the exhibition.
