He holds an M.A. in Curatorial Studies from Bard College, and has been Director of Wolfson Galleries at Miami-Dade Community College in Miami, and Curator of Contemporary Art at the Allen Memorial Art Museum at Oberlin College. In 1991 his book FRAGILE was published in Zagreb, Croatia. Ever since 1992, a year after emigrating to the United States, he has written his poems in English.

Poems from his unpublished manuscript, VOICES FROM THE SEA, have appeared in BERKELEY POETRY REVIEW, CONFRONTATION, FULL CIRCLE JOURNAL, LUSITANIA, THE PLUM REVIEW, POET LORE, PRAIRIE SCHOONER, SALAMANDER, SENECA REVIEW, and A GATHERING OF THE TRIBES, and have been published in translation from English into Hebrew in HA'ARETZ, MA'ARIV, and ITON 77.

His writing on contemporary art has appeared in magazines and catalogues in English, Croatian, Slovenian, and Portuguese.
