Koho Yamamoto “Under a Dark Moon”

The Noguchi Museum

This event has ended.

The Isamu Noguchi Foundation and Garden Museum presents Koho Yamamoto: Under a Dark Moon, a one-gallery installation of ten untitled works on paper by Masako “Koho” Yamamoto (b. 1922).

In the words of Dakin Hart, Senior Curator: “By turns lushly louring, stark, and explosively fragmentary, Yamamoto’s black paintings in particular, like the ones on view here, are steady visions from the psychic vacuum of the unknown: intimate and cosmic, specific, universal, and direct. ‘My painting comes from nothingness,’ she likes to say, ‘but it has life to it.’”
