Isamu Noguchi - From the Appreciation category:
Appreciate the moment. (Isamu Noguchi)
Isamu Noguchi - From the Education category:
I learned the tricks... If you want to do academic things, you can do them. It is not difficult. Yet it is from this difficulty – the mistakes and dead ends – that artists develop, not through the quick solutions and not from something you learn and apply. (Isamu Noguchi)
Isamu Noguchi - From the Materials category:
For me it is the direct contact of artist to material which is original, and it is the earth and his contact to it which will free him of the artificiality of the present and his dependence on industrial products. (Isamu Noguchi)
Isamu Noguchi - From the Meaning category:
It is weight that gives meaning to weightlessness... (Isamu Noguchi)
Isamu Noguchi - From the Mediums category:
The attractions of ceramics lie partly in its contradictions. It is both difficult and easy, with an element beyond our control. It is both extremely fragile and durable. Like 'Sumi' ink painting, it does not lend itself to erasures and indecision. (Isamu Noguchi)
Isamu Noguchi - From the Nature category:
The art of stone in a Japanese garden is that of placement. Its ideal does not deviate from that of nature. (Isamu Noguchi)
Isamu Noguchi - From the Sculpture category:
The essence of sculpture is for me the perception of space, the continuum of our existence. (Isamu Noguchi)
Isamu Noguchi - From the Sculpture category:
Everything is sculpture... Any material, any idea without hindrance born into space, I consider sculpture. (Isamu Noguchi)
Isamu Noguchi - From the Searching category:
Brancusi made me realise that what I had learned previously – the quick ways of doing things – was all wrong. It is a search you have to enter – into yourself. (Isamu Noguchi)
Isamu Noguchi - From the Space category:
When the time came for me to work with larger spaces, I conceived them as gardens, not as sites with objects but as relationships to a whole. (Isamu Noguchi)
Isamu Noguchi - From the Spontaneity category:
The best is that which is most spontaneous or seemingly so. (Isamu Noguchi)
