评论： Held's style evolved from a politically oriented socialist-realist mode into an Abstract Expressionist manner in the 1950s. Influenced by Jackson Pollock and Piet Mondrian, he aimed to combine the subjectivity of Pollock with the objectivity of Mondrian. Again his style changed in the early 1960s, when he created large scale, brightly colored geometrical paintings, In the late 1960s he began making black and white paintings. Teaching: Yale Univ., New Haven, CT, 1962-78.
