In 1930, renowned Japanese-American artist Isamu Noguchi (1904-1988) journeyed to Beijing, where he studied with the Chinese brush-and-ink painter Qi Baishi (1864-1957). Qi, greatly admired for his dynamic brushwork and calligraphy, had a profound impact on Noguchi. As he later said, 'All Japanese art has roots in China.' Isamu Noguchi/Qi Baishi/Beijing 1930 brings together the work of these two artists for the first time. Noguchi's drawings suggest a keen observation of Qi's masterful skills and artistry with free-spirited lines, bold brushstrokes, and a purposeful use of void space. 75 colour images
