In 2004 he was selected for the lifetime achievement award of the Smithsonian Cooper-Hewitt National Design Museum. In 2010, he was awarded a National Medal of Arts by Barack Obama.

He appears to have thought more deeply about what he makes than many lionized by the contemporary art world and its market. * San Francisco Chronicle *
