Isamu Noguchi, Uncle Takagi,1931, terracottaWhen Noguchi arrived in Japan in 1931, his first visit since childhood, he had a tense visit with his estranged father, Yonejiro, and Yonejiro’s wife and family. “My Uncle Takagi gave me a new house to stay in, and showered me with kindness, as did other relatives who gave me to understand that they favored my mother.” (Isamu Noguchi, A Sculptor’s World, New York: Harper & Row Publishers, 1968: 20.)
