BIOGRAPHY

"Robert Mangold (1937- ) was born in North Tonawanda, New York. Mangold's early work consisted of monochromatic free-standing constructions displayed against the wall. Their architectonic forms and grey tonal scale led to their association with Minimalism. The almost sculptural quality of this work was soon abandoned in favor of shaped and multipartite canvases. Mangold's consistent use of flat color and geometry was modified by a consistent manipulation of the painting's edge and by an illusionism that distinguished his work from the sober immediacy of Minimalism.
He has exhibited in a number of major museums including the Albright-Knox, Buffalo, New York; Institute of Contemporary Art, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; Museum of Modern Art, New York City and Documentas V and VI in Kassel, Germany.
His work is in the permanent collections of many institutions such as the Chicago Art Institute, the Museum of Fine Art in Dallas, the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, and the Museum of Modern Art."
