Visit the Shop

“It is my hope that this museum may expand to become a center for presenting related concepts and helping in their realization.” –Isamu Noguchi, The Isamu Noguchi Garden Museum, 1987

The Noguchi Museum Shop is a showroom for Isamu Noguchi’s Akari light sculptures, furniture, and publications. It also presents “related concepts,” in the form of a rotating selection of works by artists, designers, and craftspeople from around the world who embody Noguchi’s ethos. In the space, old and new, handmade and industrial, functional and ornamental intermingle, suggesting answers to the question posed by Noguchi in the title of his 1986 exhibition at the Venice Biennale, “What is Sculpture?” 

The room is curated by Evan Scott, Director of Retail and Merchandising, and Riccardo Sossella, Manager of Retail and Merchandising.
