SUMMARY:Noguchi’s New York
DESCRIPTION:In 1922\, Isamu Noguchi first moved to New York—a city that would remain his on-again\, off-again home for the remainder of his life. Though he was an avid traveler who built meaningful connections and temporary homes around the world\, Noguchi always returned to New York. It was here that he created some of his most iconic artworks and imagined countless others. \nThis exhibition examines Noguchi’s deep and dynamic relationship with New York City\, exploring how its material\, cultural\, social\, and political landscape indelibly transformed his artwork and thinking\, and how he in turn transformed the city. It also highlights Noguchi’s unflagging attempts to give back by sculpting communal spaces for exploration and play—efforts often thwarted\, most notably by the influential NYC Parks Commissioner Robert Moses. \nNoguchi’s New York encompasses more than 50 works\, including sculptures\, project models\, photographs\, and archival materials. The exhibition also brings to life Noguchi’s visions for unrealized playgrounds and playground equipment through a series of hand-painted animated films by Jack Cunningham and Nicolas Ménard of Eastend Western. \nOrganized on the 40th anniversary of The Isamu Noguchi Foundation and Garden Museum\, this exhibition celebrates the Museum itself as one of Noguchi’s most profound gifts to this city he called home. \nPhoto credit: Isamu Noguchi\, 1980

SUMMARY:All Star Video / Adelic Penguins
DESCRIPTION:All Star Video\n『電子の拓本』 \nOpening with Ongaku Zukan era Ryuichi Sakamoto in a technological haze\, All Star Video breaks out into a series of interviews\, documenting “All Stars” of the New York arts scene—John Cage\, Allen Ginsberg and Charlotte Moorman among them—many of whom are interviewed by Sakamoto himself. Re-enacting Fluxus performances\, from cello concertos to a piano’s destruction\, and interspersed with musical interludes throughout\, Paik’s All Star Video pays an indelible tribute to the collaborative spirit of Fluxus and the avant garde. \nDir. Nam June Paik\, 1984\, 32 min.\, digital\, color\, in English and Japanese. With Ryuichi Sakamoto\, Allen Ginsberg\, Charlotte Moorman\, Laurie Anderson\, John Cage. \nAdelic Penguins \nCommissioned by Sony and performed live on a fourteen-story TV set aptly named the JumboTRON at the Expo in Tsukuba\, Adelic Penguins is a six-part video art mesh of diving penguins\, chroma key composites and propulsive rhythms. Sakamoto\, not merely credited with composing the music\, appears on screen dancing\, twirling and performing in the expanse of Fitzgerald and Garrin’s radiating\, polychromatic overdrive.  \nDir. Kit Fitzgerald\, Paul Garrin\, 1986\, 33 min.\, digital\, color\, in Japanese with English subtitles. \nPart of Music by Ryuichi Sakamoto\nSeptember 11—12
