A few weeks ago I was talking with a friend of mine about Noguchi and his lamps. I believe it might have been Shawmut speaking of Shawmut. While clicking around the Smithsonian site, I stumbled across this exhibition of his ceramics. Make sure you click on the interactive bit in the column on the right of the actual page which you can find here. I almost expected that they would animate some of the objects. Complete with roars and whatnot. Akin to Alexander Calder's circus.
