In anticipation of its twenty-five-year anniversary, Museum is again entirely devoted to Noguchi’s life work.
In celebration of its upcoming twenty-fifth anniversary, The Noguchi Museum presents Noguchi ReINstalled. Together with the recently completed building renovation, this special museum-wide installation revivifies the artist’s original intention for the museum he designed and its display of his life’s work. On view through October 24, 2010, Noguchi ReINstalled comprises artworks in virtually all of the mediums and genres in which the artist worked, illuminating the extraordinary range of his creativity over the course of some six decades.
Museum Director Jenny Dixon states, “The Noguchi Museum itself is
widely considered to be a work of art— one of Isamu Noguchi’s greatest
achievements. Today, with the renovation complete and the collection extensively researched and meticulously and sensitively reinstalled by Curator Bonnie Rychlak, the Museum has been returned to the striking and distinctive vision that informed its creation. Yet far from looking back, the Museum is looking ahead, as it continues to increase and develop its offerings, presenting vital exhibitions and public programs that expand our understanding of Noguchi and his era, and that visitors might not find elsewhere in New York.”
