Catalog accompanying an exhibition held at PaceWildenstein, in association with the Isamu Noguchi Foundation from September 12-October 4, 2003. 4to (7.75 × 11.25 inches), pictorial wrappers with French flaps, 34 pages, extensively illustrated in black-and-white. Introductory text by Noguchi reprinted from A Sculptor’s World (Harper & Row).
A focused presentation of Noguchi’s interlocking sculptures, developed at his Greenwich Village studio during the 1940s. Assembled from fitted planes of wood and stone, these biomorphic constructions bring engineering, balance, and sculptural invention into close correspondence. The monochrome photography emphasizes their articulated surfaces and spatial complexity. Light bumping and rubbing to extremities. Contents near fine.
