    For over forty years I have been a significant collector of iconic postwar contemporary art in addition to serving for many years on the Board of Trustees at the Museum of Contemporary Art (MOCA) in Los Angeles.

     

    Having also established an interior design, garden and architecture practice over twenty years, my work has appeared routinely on the covers of every major design publication domestically and abroad. In 2016, Rizzoli published Past Perfect, a monograph devoted exclusively to my homes and gardens.

     

    Although I had been a full-time painter and sculptor in the nineties, I have for the last five years resumed that practice, leaning heavily on a near-encyclopedic knowledge of postwar conceptual art. My oeuvre is greatly influenced by Arte Povera and Minimalism—its historical significance and its surfaces, materials, and color sensibilities. This body of work has consisted of paintings, reliefs and sculpture, relying on my development of a methodology employing fabric or polyethylene tarpaulin.
