Isamu Noguchi : a study of space

Isamu Noguchi : a study of space / Ana Maria Torres - New York : Monacelli Press , c2000 - 323 p. : illus. ; 27 cm

Sculptor, garden designer, and architect, Isamu Noguchi throughout his long career designed exterior and interior spaces that deftly bring together influences from various disciplines. His conception of a "sculpture of space"--His most significant contribution to modern sculpture--was fundamental to these designs. Isamu Noguchi: A Study of Space is the first comprehensive study of Noguchi's public works, including playgrounds, earthworks, gardens, parks, plazas, memorials, interior design, fountains, and sculptures. Noguchi moved between disciplines with ease, approaching landscapes from the point of view of an artist and seeking the absolute integration of sculpture, space, and building.
