Marking the fortieth anniversary of Isamu Noguchi’s U.S. Pavilion in the 1986 Venice Biennale, Light and Stone examines one of the artist’s most provocative exhibitions through materials from The Noguchi Museum’s collection and archive. Light and Stone is a single-gallery archival presentation in Area 5 of the Museum’s first floor. In 1986, Isamu Noguchi became the first solo artist to represent the United States at the Venice Biennale with the provocative exhibition What Is Sculpture?.
