In 1926 Noguchi won one of the first Guggenheim fellowships and traveled to Paris, where he worked for six months as a studio assistant to sculptor Constantin Brancusi. In addition to his sculptural work, he created furniture and lighting for the Herman Miller Company, designed sets for choreographers Martha Graham and George Balanchine and collaborated with architect Louis I.
