There is a lots of material about this [Lithuanian-born American Abstract Sculptor( 1887-1966) on the web. He also was less famous as a painter. Full bio at http://www.artnet.com/Artists/ArtistHomePage.aspx?
Tosee his works in Museums on line go to: http://www.artcyclopedia.com/artists/zorach_william.html
If you look up the site above, you can go to all the museums where his work is exhibited, click on each, and you will see examples of his sculpture.
Ditto with commercial galleries http://www.artcyclopedia.com/gallery/zorach_william.html
