From Plaster to Stone
March 25–August 30, 11:00 AM–6:00 PM
The Noguchi Museum, 32-37 Vernon Boulevard Long Island City, New York 11106
Isamu Noguchi began using small paper models in the 1940s to help visualize his larger sculptures. He continued doing so for the rest of his career, transitioning into plaster maquettes in order to envision larger stone or metal works. This small exhibition will showcase a selection of Noguchi's maquettes, as well as photographs and finished sculptures.
