He was born and grew up in Briarcliff near Bronxville, New York. In 1961, he received his BFA at the Boston University School of Fine and Applied Arts, and received his MFA at the Yale University School of Art and Architecture in 1963. In his work from the 1960s and 1970s, he used simplified means, typically monochrome canvases either alone or in series or triptychs, to achieve what he considered to be highly emotional and subjective representations; more recently he has begun painting works consisting of swirling and entangling lines in two or more colors, as in the "Cold Mountain" series. He is considered to be one of the more important American painters of the late 20th and early 21st century, and has been the subject of several shows and retrospectives, beginning with his 1975 retrospective at the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in New York.
