  • Asian Art Museum Presents Drawings, Prints, and Sculptures That Fuse East and West, Past and Present, from Midcentury Masters Noguchi and Hasegawa
    NEWS PRESS CONTACT: Zac T. Rose 415.581.3560 [email protected] Asian Art Museum Presents Drawings, Prints, and Sculptures that Fuse East and West, Past and Present, from Midcentury Masters Noguchi and Hasegawa In postwar Japan, Isamu Noguchi and Saburo Hasegawa shared an artistic kinship that balanced ancient traditions with modern materials, sparking designs that surround us today. San Francisco, July 16, 2019 — This fall, Sep. 27 through Dec. 8, the Asian Art Museum will present Changing and Unchanging Things: Noguchi and Hasegawa in Postwar Japan, an exhibition of more than one hundred artworks that tell the story of an extraordinary friendship that helped shape the iconic midcentury aesthetic. In addition to Japanese American Isamu Noguchi’s (1904– 1988) renowned paper Akari lamps and instantly recognizable stone, wood and metal sculptures, the exhibition reintroduces audiences to Japanese calligrapher, painter and philosopher Saburo Hasegawa (1906–1957), whose contributions to a range of international artistic movements, including the Beats in San Francisco, have largely been overlooked due to his early death in 1957. Changing and Unchanging Things includes dozens of Hasegawa’s experimental photo collages that have never been displayed publicly and only recently emerged from storage in a Bay Area home. Calligraphics, 1957, by Isamu Noguchi (American, 1904–1988). Iron, wood, rope, and metal. The Isamu Noguchi Foundation and Garden Museum, New York. © The Isamu Noguchi Foundation and Garden Museum, New York/ARS. Photograph by Kevin Noble. 2 Changing and Unchanging Things: Noguchi and Hasegawa in Postwar Japan Hasegawa had worked and studied in Europe during the 1920s and 30s — where he was exposed to many of the same influences as Noguchi, who had worked in the Paris atelier of Constantin Brancusi.

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Media Contacts: Ennis O’Brien Betsy Ennis [email protected] | 917.783.6553 Lucy O’Brien [email protected] | 646.590.9267 Changing and Unchanging Things: Noguchi and Hasegawa in Postwar Japan Opens May 1, 2019 Exhibition will examine profound impact Isamu Noguchi and Saburo Hasegawa had on each other’s work and will introduce Hasegawa—one of the most renowned 20th-century Japanese artists in the U.S. during his lifetime —to new audiences what Changing and Unchanging Things: Noguchi and Hasegawa in Postwar Japan focuses on the intense and consequential friendship between artists Isamu Noguchi (1904–1988) and Saburo Hasegawa (1906–1957). Until his early death, Hasegawa was among the most renowned contemporary Japanese artists on both the East and West coasts of the U.S., credited with introducing European abstraction to Japan in his role as an active art historian, critic, and art theorist. The brief yet productive relationship between the two artists was kindled during Noguchi’s visit to Japan in 1950, as together they sought to understand and process the fragmented, postwar world and art’s potential role in reassembling it. Noguchi and Hasegawa were each thinking deeply about the relationship between tradition and modernity and between indigenous and foreign influences in postwar art and culture in Japan and in their own work. Together, they undertook a wide-ranging study of traditional Japanese design, culture, and aesthetics. They visited a variety of historic sites across the country (temples, palaces, Image: Saburo Hasegawa, Pure Suffering, 1956. Ink on burlap. 30 x 96 inches.

We have all come to know how Oriental art influenced the development of modern Western art—how, just over a century ago, Manet, Degas, Whistler, and Van Gogh found a key to their own development in the Japanese print. In our own day, Mark Tobey, Morris Graves, and Hasegawa’s good friend, Franz Kline, all come to mind as painters who have found sustenance in the arts of Japan. But what do we here know of Japanese painters who have advanced their own tradition in some creative way by absorbing any of the spirit of the arts of the West? I can think of great painters in this country who are Japanese by birth or ancestry and whose art, though tinted by their racial origin, is primarily Western in character—Yasuo Kuniyoshi and Kenzo Okada, among others. I can also think of painters who have attempted to draw upon both cultural sources, but here suc- ceeded only in saying a little less about each than we already know, and nothing else.

Comprising approximately 90 works by Noguchi and Hasegawa, this major exhibition traces the time these mid-career artists spent together, examining the profound mutual impact that they had on each other’s work. Changing and Unchanging Things also reintroduces Hasegawa—once well known in the United States, especially among the Abstract Expressionists, yet now nearly unheard of—to American audiences. His reinsertion into the history of twentieth-century abstraction is long overdue and an important part of the ongoing diversification of the canon.

Born in San Francisco’s Chinatown, Bing’s early life was filled with adversity. Orphaned at the age of 6, Bing lived in a variety of homes including an orphanage, her grandmother’s, and with several white foster families. The Queer Cultural Exchange writes, “Through art, Bing dealt with the remoteness of her family and life set in a transplanted culture and the non-Asian world she encountered.” In 1958, after being awarded a scholarship, Bing began attending California College of Arts and Crafts. Here, under the influence of her professors, Bernice began exploring the intersection of being an American-born, queer, ethnically Chinese artist. Her fascination with East Asian philosophy, especially Zen Buddhism, can be seen throughout her work. In 1961, Bing graduated with an MFA, after transferring to what is now known as the San Francisco Art Institute. She established herself in the San Francisco art scene, mingling with the Beat movement. Bernice Bing was a devoted artist and activist, who was responsible for supporting many arts organizations throughout the Bay Area, such as SomArts.

  • Hidden History of Abstract Expressionism and Asian-American Artists Addressed in New Show at Honolulu Museum of Art
    HIDDEN HISTORY OF ABSTRACT EXPRESSIONISM AND ASIAN-AMERICAN ARTISTS ADDRESSED IN NEW SHOW AT HONOLULU MUSEUM OF ART First exhibition to explore artistic and personal relationships between artists of the New York School and artists of East Asian descent, especially those based in Hawai‘i HONOLULU, HAWAI‘I—May 18, 2017—This September, the Honolulu Museum of Art presents the first exhibition to consider mid-twentieth-century abstraction through its Asian- American practitioners, with a special focus on artists active in Hawai‘i. Abstract Expressionism: Looking East from the Far West addresses a gap in the history of Abstract Expressionism, bringing artists of the New York School together with Asian-American artists who studied and worked in New York in the 1940s and 1950s, examining the influence of Asian intellectual and artistic traditions on artists long revered as uniquely American. Conceptualized and curated by Deputy Director of Art and Programs and Curator of European and American Art Theresa Papanikolas and organized by the museum, the exhibition opens September 7, 2017 and runs through January 21, 2018. The exhibition presents major works by American masters such as Philip Guston, Willem de Kooning, Robert Motherwell, Barnett Newman, Jackson Pollock, and Mark Rothko, alongside those by Asian-American artists such as Ruth Asawa, Saburo Hasegawa, Isamu Noguchi, Isami Doi, Tadashi Sato, and Tetsuo Ochikubo, among others. With more than 45 paintings, drawings, and sculptures, the exhibition will examine the ways in which Eastern traditions from Chinese and Japanese calligraphy to Zen Buddhism helped advance Abstract Expressionism’s aesthetic agenda—its understated lyricism, its compositional balance, its subtle awareness of place— regardless of the artist.
