Allan Kaprow Biography

(b Atlantic City, NJ, 23 Aug 1927). American performance artist. From 1945 to 1949 he was at New York University as an art major and from 1947 to 1948 also studied painting with Hans Hofmann at the Hans Hofmann School of Fine Arts in New York. On graduation from New York University Kaprow began working for an MA in philosophy but left the following year to study for an MA in art history at Columbia University, New York, under Meyer Schapiro. On completing his thesis, Piet Mondrian: A Study in Seeing , in 1952 he began to devote himself to his own work and co-founded the Hansa Gallery in New York with other former students of Hofmann, holding his first one-man exhibition there in 1953. From 1953 to 1961 he taught art history at Rutgers University, New Brunswick, NJ.
