The Noguchi Museum Dedicated to Isamu Noguchi’s works, and programming with related modern and contemporary artists. 13 galleries and outdoor sculpture garden. Open Wed–Sun.
(493)

Founded in 1985 by Isamu Noguchi (1904-1988), one of the leading sculptors and designers of the twentieth century, The Noguchi Museum was the first museum in America to be founded, designed, and installed by a living artist to show their own work. Widely viewed as among the artist’s greatest achievements, the Museum features an indoor/outdoor sculpture garden and two floors of exhibition space in

a converted factory building. Since its founding, it has served as an international hub for Noguchi research and appreciation. In addition to housing the artist’s archives and the catalogue raisonné of his work, the Museum exhibits a comprehensive selection of sculpture, models for public projects and gardens, dance sets, and his Akari lanterns. Provocative, frequently-changing installations drawn from the permanent collection, together with diverse special exhibitions, offer a rich, contextualized view of Noguchi’s art and illuminate his enduring influence as a category-defying, multicultural, cross-disciplinary innovator. The Noguchi Museum is located at 9-01 33rd Road (at Vernon Boulevard), Long Island City, New York. It is open Wednesday–Friday, 10 am–5 pm; Saturday and Sunday, 11 am– 6 pm. General admission is $10; $5 for senior citizens and students with a valid ID. New York City public high-school students, children under 12, and Museum members are admitted free of charge. Admission is free on the first Friday of every month. Public tours in English are available daily at 2 pm, and in Japanese on the first Friday and second Sunday of every month. 718-204-7088 or www.noguchi.org

The Noguchi Museum mourns the passing of Japanese architect Yoshio Taniguchi, who died in December at the age of 87.

Yoshio Taniguchi was introduced to Isamu Noguchi at a young age by his father, Yoshiro (1904–1979), who was also a prominent architect and collaborated with Noguchi on his earliest projects in Japan. Noguchi had a close relationship with both father and son, and became a sort of mentor to the younger Taniguchi.

After establishing his own architecture firm in 1979, Yoshio Taniguchi invited Noguchi to contribute to a design for his first museum project in 1984: the Ken Domon Museum of Photography in Sakata, which houses the collection of the renowned Japanese photographer. Taniguchi designed four other major museums in Japan before he gained international fame for redesigning the Museum of Modern Art, New York, in 2004.

A master of imbuing his projects with a humane and universal refinement, Taniguchi credited his sensitivity to the relationship between objects and spaces in part to his friendship with Noguchi. Taniguchi previously served as a trustee of The Isamu Noguchi Foundation and Garden Museum in New York and was a longtime member of the Board of Trustees of The Isamu Noguchi Foundation of Japan, Inc. In 2015, he was the recipient of the second annual Isamu Noguchi Award for his visionary work and commitment to world citizenship and the practice of creating art with a social purpose.

Now available in The Noguchi Museum Shop: A collection of handwoven works by Valeria Belli (b. 1965), an artist-craftsperson based in Chieti, Italy.

Weaving on early 19th-century looms, Belli uses indigenous wool and natural dyes from her native Abruzzo to create an assortment of bed carpets (throws), table carpets (runners), as well as key ornaments made through tablet weaving. The artist’s practice is rooted in the ‘transumanza,’ the ancient, twice-yearly shepherded migration of sheep that has shaped Abruzzian economy and culture for millennia. By reworking regional techniques and decorative styles, Belli creates personal takes on traditional Abruzzian wares with additional influences from archeology, medieval culture and folk textiles.

Each work available in the Shop is made of ‘transumanza’ heritage wool from Gentile di Puglia, Merinizzata, and Sopravissana, three breeds of Merino which Belli diversely manipulates to bring forth different facets of their character. Each piece is an individualized interpretation as much as it is diligent record-keeping, a way to inscribe in wool parts of a language that is otherwise in the late stages of vanishing.

The Shop is open during Museum hours, Wednesdays–Sundays, 10 am–4:45 pm. For pricing and availability, inquire at [email protected].

11/07/2024

Miwako Kurashima’s ‘* folding cosmos,’ on view at The Noguchi Museum through November 17, is inspired by the One-Mat Room, a small study space created by the nineteenth century Japanese explorer Takeshirō Matsuura (1818–1888). Constructed from wood collected by far-flung friends at important sites throughout Japan, the room became a kind of map of Matsuura’s social network and locations that held meaning for him and those he knew. Inspired by this concept, Kurashima’s exhibition brings together artworks that explore how even the most intimate spaces can evoke the vastness of the universe.

On Thursdays at 1 and 1:30 pm, Kurashima invites five guests into the installation for tea and conversation. Seats can be reserved at The Noguchi Museum front desk on the day of the program. Learn more by visiting noguchi.org.

10/16/2024

From October 16 through November 17, The Noguchi Museum will present Japanese designer and interior architect Miwako Kurashima’s traveling installation ‘* folding cosmos.’ Organized by Kurashima and Noguchi Museum Curator Kate Wiener, ‘* folding cosmos’ explores the interplay between the intimate and infinite, offering a quiet space for gathering and contemplation. The installation features works by Kurashima and Isamu Noguchi, as well as contemporary Japanese artists Aï Kitahara, Kineta Kunimatsu, and Ayumi Tanaka.

Each Thursday at 1 pm and 1:30 pm during the exhibition, Kurashima will invite a small group of visitors to join her in the installation to share tea and conversation. To keep these tea meetings intimate, capacity will be limited to five participants per meeting. Seats can be reserved at The Noguchi Museum front desk on the day of the program. Learn more about the exhibition: noguchi.org.

Now on view, ‘Against Time: The Noguchi Museum 40th Anniversary Reinstallation,’ adapts Isamu Noguchi’s original vision for the Museum’s second floor galleries.

In establishing the first artist-founded museum in the United States in 1985, Isamu Noguchi conceived of the second floor as a retrospective of his practice, with galleries devoted to displaying designs for theater sets and environmental spaces, as well as individual sculptures and other works produced from the 1920s to the 1980s. Four decades later, ‘Against Time’ takes inspiration from Noguchi’s earliest arrangements of this space, featuring a selection of around 60 sculptures, project models, drawings, and dance sets that survey his lifelong interest in themes such as transformation, mortality, weightlessness, and humanity’s coexistence with nature.

On view August 28, 2024–September 14, 2025, 'Against Time: The Noguchi Museum 40th Anniversary Reinstallation' features a selection of Isamu Noguchi’s sculptures, project models, drawings, and dance sets.

Coinciding with the Museum’s 40th anniversary in 2025, the exhibition returns over sixty works from the permanent collection to the second floor. Taking inspiration from Isamu Noguchi’s own arrangements and intentions for these spaces in the earliest years of the Museum (1985–88), the exhibition reveals Noguchi’s lifelong interest in themes such as transformation, mortality, weightlessness, and humanity’s coexistence with nature; and explores how his many unrealized environmental projects were a well of ideas that he refined and adapted within later realized projects.

“Against Time” is curated by Matthew Kirsch, Museum Curator and Director of Research.

"Our existence is precarious, we do not believe in the permanence of things. The whole man has been replaced by the fragmented self . . .[yet] we verge on the impalpable secrets of matter and life, and out of each metamorphosis we see the outlines of a new magnificent reality.” – Isamu Noguchi

‘Gregory’ (1945), a remarkable interlocking sculpture by Isamu Noguchi, breathes life into the eerie world of Franz Kafka's "The Metamorphosis. The sculpture's violent chasms and fragmented form convey a sense of transformation, mirroring Kafka's tale of Gregor Samsa, a man-turned-cockroach. Fascinated by the fragility of life, Noguchi's interlocking sculpture hangs in the tenuous balance between stability and collapse. When filming ‘Gregory,’ experimental filmmaker Marie Menken added a surreal twist by turning her camera sideways and racing down the sculpture's surface. She animates the sculptures's voids so they appear to rush across the frame and gleam with white light. This captivating exploration blurs the boundaries between positive and negative space, light and darkness, and top and bottom, offering a hauntingly strange visual experience.

Both Isamu Noguchi's 'Gregory' and Menken's film which features the work are on view in the exhibition 'A Glorious Bewilderment: Marie Menken's Visual Variations on Noguchi,' on view through February 4, 2024. Learn more: noguchi.org/a-glorious-bewilderment

This is the last week to apply for The Noguchi Museum's Teen Advisory Board [TAB]!

Teen Advisory Board is a paid internship for juniors and seniors in New York City public high schools. TAB is a great opportunity for young professionals to develop their interests in art and social justice, and network with like-minded teen colleagues from all around the city. As participants dive into Isamu Noguchi's life and engage in dialogue with museum staff, teens will reflect on their own identities and practice expressing their own voices for institutional justice, anti-racism, and equity. Applications for this year's TAB cohort are due by Thursday, October 19: noguchi.org/teen-advisory-board.

‘Toshiko Takaezu: Shaping Abstraction’ is on view September 30, 2023–September 29, 2024 at The Museum of Fine Arts, Boston ()

The MFA holds a significant collection of Takaezu’s works—more than twenty examples will be featured alongside loans from private collections. Highlights also include a large-scale weaving that has been recently acquired by the MFA and a grouping of works that explores the artist’s cross-cultural interactions with contemporary Japanese ceramicists during her pivotal eight-month trip to Japan in 1955–56. In conjunction with the exhibition, an additional display in the Linde Family Wing for Contemporary Art juxtaposes Takaezu’s work with that of Isamu Noguchi.

Challenging traditional presentations of American abstraction, the exhibition celebrates the extraordinary range of Takaezu’s work—aiming to make her contributions more widely known. ‘Toshiko Takaezu: Shaping Abstraction’ was developed in collaboration with the Toshiko Takaezu Foundation () and The Isamu Noguchi Foundation and Garden Museum.
