Born 1929, New York City. Died 1999, New York City.
Nicholas Krushenick served in World War II and began his education in art upon his return to the States. He attended the Art Students League of New York and the Hans Hofmann School Of Art. In 1969, Krushenick moved away from soft abstractions towards bold colors and graphic lines, maintaining a play between figure and ground. This style marked him as one of the pioneering practitioners of pop art.
