Modern Plywood Isamu Noguchi Cyclone Dining Table , Office Furniture Tables with Iron Base

Isamu Noguchi

A leading American sculptor strongly influenced by Japanese tradition, Noguchi was also widely known for his furniture for the Herman Miller Furniture Company and lighting for Knoll Associates. He was brought up in both countries and studied at the Leonardo da Vinci Art School in New York in 1924 before going to Paris to study under the sculptor Constantin Brancusi in Paris.

In the early 1930s he travelled to China and Japan, where he studied many aspects of oriental arts and crafts. In 1935 he designed sets for the choreographer Martha Graham’s ballet Frontier, working on further sets for Martha Graham productions in the 1940s.
Noguchi’s first furniture designs in rosewood and glass were for A. Conger Goodyear, the president of the Museum of Modern Art, New York, in 1939. Following in the spirit of his sculptures earlier in the 1930s, these were biomorphic in character. His furniture for Herman Miller included a glass-topped coffee table (designed c.1940), a rocking stool (c.1953), and a Formica-topped dining table using cast iron and steel rods to support its top (c.1953). Noguchi also produced an aluminium table for Alcoa in 1957.

From the mid-1940s he produced a series of table lamps for Knoll that took on something of the qualities of Japanese lanterns with simple translucent "shades" wrapped around simple geometric frames. Following a visit to Japan in 1951 he also began to explore the aesthetic possibilities of folding paper lanterns that were first produced under the name of Akari in the early 1960s.
