A Sculptor´s World is the long-awaited new edition of the renowned 1968 autobiography of Isamu Noguchi, one of the twentieth century´s most important sculptors and an influential believer in the social significance of the medium. Through over 250 images-photographs of Noguchi´s experimental work, drawings and architectural plans-and told in his own words, it remains his most comprehensive statement about the art that brought him international acclaim. With an avant-garde layout and typography that remain fresh and compelling today, the book is essential reading for anyone with an interest in Noguchi´s work-simultaneously subtle and bold, traditional and modern- or a general interest in sculpture. Reprinted twice by Steidl and long out of print, this volume includes the original foreword by R. Buckminster Fuller and incorporates paper stocks and printing techniques as close as possible to the 1968 edition. We are a landscape of all we have seen. - Isamu Noguchimehr

Autor

Isamu Noguchi, born in1904, was among the most influential sculptors of the twentieth century. Born in Los Angeles to an Irish-American teacher and editor and a Japanese poet, he was raised in Japan until being sent back to the United States to study at age 13. In 1926, Noguchi won one of the first Guggenheim fellowships and travelled to Paris where he worked for six months as a studio assistant to sculptor Constantin Brancusi. In addition to his sculptural work, he created furniture and lighting for the Herman Miller Company, designed sets for choreographers Martha Graham and Georg Balanchine and collaborated with architect Louis I. Kahn, among others.
