Bringing the publication to feedback, and the general feeling was that the publication was had a clear and concise idea and look behind it.
Because of the idea to 'sell' this celebratory publication at the museum, there were suggestions to design post card prints and exhibition posters to go alongside.
Having embossed designs for the typographic sculptures or headline text could provide an added dimension to the publication. A de-bossed inside cover for example would be a nice addition considering how its meant to act as the secondary cover.
The suggestion to email the actual Noguchi Museum in New York should have been done sooner, even if they do not respond. To get their experience of Noguchi's work and insight into sculpture would be beneficial in exploring the relationship between type and sculpture.
Not only that museum but the Yorkshire Sculpture Park as well would provide good first hand research and be easier to communicate with.
Because the publication is about sculpture, inevitably the comment to physically making the typographic sculptures was brought up. This was a suggestion to elevate the design and content of the publication as well as to better communicate how typography can become sculpture more literally as having just 2D interpretations may not be effective enough.
These physical sculptures could be laser cut from wood through an interlocking design that visitors could build themselves. These sculptures could even be placed inside the gallery space itself.
