  • Biography

    The following is from an anonymous Source:

    Isamu Noguchi and Marion Greenwood worked together occasionally, having met in Paris in life drawing sessions at the Academie Colarossi and the Academie de le Grande Chaumiere. In 1929 he did a cast-iron portrait head of Greenwood, now at the Isamu Noguchi Garden Museum. In the mid thirties he followed her to Mexico, and she gave him one of her walls to work on at the Abelardo Rodriguez Market in Mexico City, his first large work of public art.
