The oeuvre of Japanese-American artist and designer Isamu Noguchi is unusually
multi-faceted. He is regarded as a universal talent whose creative oeuvre went beyond
sculpture to encompass stage sets, furniture, lighting, interiors as well as outdoor
plazas and gardens. His sculptural style is indebted to a vocabulary of organic forms
and exerted a sustained influence on design during the 1950s.
