Museum author. In Lithuania, works are held by LNMD, NČDM, MO.  Also has works by "Zimmerli Art Museum", Rutgers, JAV.

In the 1970s and 1980s, Henrikas Natalevičius, along with B. Gražys, M. Skudutis, R. Sližys, and R. Vilkauskas, formed one of the first unofficial groups of artists, the so-called "Group of Five," who contributed to changes in Lithuanian painting in the 1970s.

H. Natalevičius is one of the more interesting Lithuanian artists of the 1980s. His work is characterized by fantasy-inspired visions, irony, multi-layered complexity, and the application of "ugliness aesthetics" principles. The painter likes to give objects and natural elements the shapes of human body parts.
