Author: Johnson, Rays Ray Johnson (1929–1995) studied painting at the legend ary Black Mountain College, where he met and befriended many of the leading avant-garde figures of the day. He moved to New York in 1949, and within a few years he had rejected painting in favor of collage. That medium’s combinatory principles became central to his art, which grew to encompass performance, conceptual art, and sculpture. Show more
