Guided Tour

Sunday, May 26, 2 pm

This exhibition will shed new light on the transformative relationship between American artist Isamu Noguchi (1904–1988) and Chinese ink painter Qi Baishi (1864–1957). In 1930 Noguchi spent six months in Beijing, where he met and studied with the renowned Chinese brush-and-ink painter Qi Baishi, an experience that greatly affected his creative vision. UMMA docents will explore the artists' cross-cultural creative impulses and their respective and lasting influences on worldwide contemporary practice.
