Trained in the United States after a childhood spent in Japan, Noguchi moved to Paris in 1927, where he became Constantin Brancusi’s assistant, he rubbed shoulders with the great names of modern art such as Alberto Giacometti, Juan Miró or Alexander Calder who would forge his conception of the materiality of sculpture, he is also passionate about the relationship between sculpture, space and body, wishing to “go beyond the art of objects”.
