This museum traces the artistic development of Japanese/American artist Isamo Noguchi. Good stone and wood sculptures and lovely space. Also his memorable paper lanterns are displayed and the manufactured versions are sold here. Worth making a trip, especially if combined with local MoMA PS1 or the Socrates Sculpture Gardens by the water

I knew nothing of Noguchi before visiting this museum, but the staff were so friendly, the guide notes so helpful and the space so beautifully laid out that I'd recommend a visit. The basalt and marble works downstairs caught my particular attention. Even better that the Socrates Sculpture Park (free!) is just across the road. Best to come from Broadway metro. I arrived via Court Square. Feet still hurt.

I heard about The Noguchi Museum in one of the local Long Island City, New York brochures and I am so glad that I made it there.They have two floors of fantastic Sculptures with a pretty garden on the outside, along with a video about the artists life and an impressive gift shop.It is definitely a Must See for the Eyes whenever You are in Queens.

its really small but the sculptures, the outdoor space, and the general peace this space provides are so worth a trip out of the city, we live in the neighborhood and drop in every once in a while - the cafe is nice and the garden is just amazing.

it took us years to finally walk into Noguchi and now we can't stay away. serene, beautiful and yes the garden is very Zen. love to spend some time there on a hot day, enjoy the beauty and escape the concrete jungle outside. a quick walk across the street from Socrates. a must see .

Oh WOW!! Just awesome… words fail me ~ but one simply has to find some to write a review, no..??? So, let’s press on…..Hmmm… interesting building (first impression as we approach this almost drab exterior with some architectural embellishments on one side) located in an average (read “formerly”) run-down section of New York’s Long Island City (Queens) waterfront, which was peppered with industrial plants, warehouses and waste not too long ago. Thanks to the City’s resurgence (let’s stay away from just who or what administration led this effort !) the entire neighborhood has rebounded as have many other of the other formerly deserted sections of the five boroughs, and is fast becoming one of the new chic and unaffordable places to live in…. Back to Noguchi ~ the museum is located opposite the Japanese American artists former home and studio where he lived and worked for much of his career, creating fine, large sculptures and intricate drawings for many installations and projects that encompassed gardens, furniture and many other art forms. Though he was born in California, and lived in Japan for a while, New York became his home after he achieved recognition and through most of his creative years when he was not travelling. He opened this museum in 1985 in what was a 1920’s industrial building, adding a beautiful and serene Japanese style sculpture garden and many outdoor and indoor exhibition spaces showcasing both his monumental and fine, smaller works. He intended this building to encompass and showcase a representative collection of his life’s work.The museum has two levels and a rooftop terrace which are all used as exhibition spaces, and these change character constantly with the seasons because of the plantings and materials (stone, water, gravel, concrete) he incorporated. This museum was a pioneer in leading the change of this part of the City from an industrial wasteland into the arts district it has grown into, with the addition of the Socrates Sculpture garden which is an easy stroll away (a couple of blocks North,) the MOMA PS1 and other such venerable institutions nearby over the last 20 or so years.Well worth the visit, and do allow time to take in all the displays and to sit and enjoy the serenity of the outdoor spaces as well, shielded from the bustle and “life” of the great big city. Not very easy to get to, so check out the City's transportation maps to figure out what's best for you. There's also a handy guide on the museum's website.

This museum is a very comprehensive offering of the entire panoply of periods/works from Noguchi as it comprised his original workshop. There is even a cinematic presentation of his life. One can spend an entire morning or afternoon there, but it is a bit off the beaten track, so you either have to hike from the Astoria line or take a not-too-frequent bus to get there. Noguchi's sculptures are elemental , serene , and massive, best to be enjoyed outdoors. Most are housed in large high-roofed galleries, but there is also a sculpture garden that offers a contemplative view in good weather. You can easily bring a Sunday NYT and enjoy something from the cafe. The staff is very attentive and knowledgable.

I visit New York often but, finally, I got to go to the Noguchi Museum in Queens. I just loved it. Check it out and see it for yourself. I found the visit really worthwhile and I intend to go back every time I visit the city. Beautiful modern sculptures, that really opens your mind to what a genius Noguchi was.

This small museum is well worth the visit (as long as you appreciate Japanese monolithic sculpture). The nearby park and local restaurants make this a prime day trip. Walk to Roosevelt Island and take the cable car to Manhattan if you have time.

It's a bit of an adventure getting there (subway, bus, walking a few blocks), but it's well worth it. The museum itself is multi-level with nice light, and the work is quite varied and quite powerful and beautiful. I'd look up his work, if you're unfamiliar with it, before going out there, just to make sure you'll appreciate it. I loved it!
