Overview
Despite there having been over 80 exhibitions dedicated to the work of Noguchi throughout the USA and Japan, this will be the first opportunity for a European audience to examine a large-scale critical exhibition of this important artist’s work.
This exhibition will include an indoor and outdoor display of Noguchi’s magnificent stone carvings ranging in size from 25 tonnes to small interior works, along with ceramics, designs, furniture, drawings and works on paper.
The park’s elegant historic landscaped gardens and terraces will be transformed by monumental stone sculptures into a space of calm and contemplation, reflecting the artist’s public works and the traditional Japanese Zen gardens in which the artist found inspiration and solace. www.ysp.co.uk
