From 1965 to 2006 he lived in New York. He now lives and works in Buenos Aires and Los Angeles. His exhibition Raptures, Diagonals and Ruptures appeared recently at the Espacio Fundación Telefónica, Buenos Aires (2013), and his work is currently included in the SITElines Biennial: Unsettled Landscapes, SITE Santa Fe, through January 2015.
