| Minimalist artist, born in Excelsior Springs, Missouri, USA. He studied at the College of William and Mary, Columbia University, and at the Art Student's League. He had metal boxes manufactured to his specification, spray-painted one colour, and stood on the floor. He had therefore only ‘minimal’ contact with his work, which is deliberately non-imitative, non-expressive, and not ‘composed’ in any traditional sense. His first one-man show was held in New York City in 1964. |
