Born in Brooklyn, NY, in 1949, Terry Winters attended the High School of Art & Design in New York and continued formal training at the Pratt Institute, receiving a BFA in 1971. His early paintings are influenced by minimalist, monochromatic paintings, like those of Brice Marden. Winters' love of drawing led him to introduce schematic references to astronomical, biological and architectural structures as the subject matter of his paintings. He began exhibiting work in 1977, and by the early 1980s his ideas had developed into loose grids of organic shapes beside lushly painted fields.
His has been included in numerous Whitney Biennials of 1985, 1987 and has held solo shows at the Tate Gallery in London and the Sonnabend Gallery in New York. His work has been exhibited at the Corcoran Gallery of Art as well as with many international museums. Bill Goldston invited Winters to print at the Universal Limited Art Editions studio in 1982. Mr Winters lives and works in New York and Geneva, Switzerland.
