Painter and collagist Paul Horiuchi (1906-1999) was one of the artists of the "Northwest School," an art movement which combined natural elements of the Puget Sound area with traditional Asian aesthetics to create a novel and distinct regional style.
Here, Horiuchi stands next to his 1964 work "Monolithic Impasse," in the Seattle Art Museum's 1990 exhibition "Views and Visions in the Pacific Northwest."
