In 1923, he emigrated with his family to New York, where he received his first formal training at the National Academy of Design, from 1924 to 1930. He was a leading early 20th-century painter in abstract styles in New York City. His work, a search for philosophical order through visual expression, embraced cubism and geometric abstraction and was much influenced by Dutch painter Piet Mondrian.
