This biography from the Archives of AskART:
|  After serving in the Navy and Army Air Corps during World War II, he settled in Chicago and earned degrees from the Art Institute of Chicago and the Illinois Institute of Design. In the mid 1950s, he co-founded the Contemporary Art Workshop dubbed the "Monster Roster." Injecting passion, emotion and meaning, much of it grim war images, into artwork, it was a reaction against the dominant abstractionism of the New York School. He and painter John Kearney opened a counterculture art space called the Contemporary Art Gallery. In 1958, Fink moved to Tempe, Arizona to head the basic design curriculum at Arizona State Unversity. |
