ISAMU NOGUCHI

Isamu Noguchi was born in Los Angeles on November 17, 1904, the illegitimate son of Yone Noguchi, a Japanese poet who had gained great acclaim in the United States, and Leonie Gilmour, an American writer who edited much of his work.His artistic career spanned six decades, from the 1920s onward.

Noguchi constantly sought to combine and balance the influences of the Japanese and the American aesthetic in his work and in his life. Repeatedly moving between the two countries throughout his life, his work genuinely synthesizes elements of both cultures.
