Description
One of the greatest artists of the past century, Noguchi worked with an extraordinary range of materials to produce an equally extraordinary array of sculptural creations. Among the most powerful and haunting were his designs for theatre, especially the theatre of dance. This book celebrates that sculpture with splendid photographs of 37 set designs, mainly for Martha Graham, and with commentary on each that tells the story of the dance as well as the story behind the sculptor's creation, usually in his own words. This handsome, large-format book is a treasure for both art lovers and dance lovers.
