Henry Art Gallery
The Henry Art Gallery at the University, of Washington in Seattle desperately needed transforming as it was overshadowed by the large buildings that surrounded it.

In the 1930s he became more closely aligned with the mainstream of European avant-garde art, but even his most abstract work was almost always based on natural forms.
