A Sculptor's World is the long awaited reprint of Isamu Noguchi's 1968 autobiography. It remains Noguchi's most comprehensive statement about the art that brought him international acclaim. Told in words and images, A Sculptor's World is essential reading for anyone with an interest in the life and work of this seminal artist or a general interest in sculpture. Reissued in 2004 and since out of print, A Sculptor's World is now in its third edition, reprinted by Steidl. This volume includes the original foreword by R. Buckminster Fuller, as well as a new timeline of major events in Noguchi's life between 1968, when he created his seminal autobiography, and his death in 1988.
