Painting
Born in 1930 in Nashville, Tennessee, Robert Ryman is considered one of the leading pioneers of Minimalist painting, alongside such renowned artists as Frank Stella and Sol LeWitt. Following high school, Ryman initially enrolled at the Tennessee Polytechnic Institute, but after one year of studies he transferred to the George Peabody College for Teachers (now part of Vanderbilt University) in Nashville to study music. Following a brief stint in the United States Army, in 1952 he relocated to New York to continue pursuing music.
