ReplyDeleteHe is great and he is still alive and 95! From Wikipedia:
DeleteFollowing his death, the artist plans to transform his 170-acre property in Sharon, Connecticut, into an artists' residency. He has lived there since the 1990s. It will provide a live-work space for 18 to 24 artists at a time and will be open to visual artists, poets, musicians, dancers.
