LifeCropper was born in New York city August 4, 1931 in Sugar Hill, Harlem, New York City.[2][3] His father was a pharmacist and his mother was an embroiderer in Harlem.[4] Cropper started creating art at the age of four. He was inspired by the many colors of his mothers silk threads.[3] He studied at the Art Students League of New York, and spent time in private study in Japan.[5] In the early 1950s, while living at 4 Barrow Street in New York's Greenwich Village with the jazz musician Charlie Parker,[6] Cropper taught Parker how to paint in exchange for music lessons.[7][8][9][4] In 1954 he exhibited his work at the Galerie Moderne.[10] In 1964 his work was part of the 10 American Negro Artists Living and Working in Europe exhibition at Den Frie Udstilling in Copenhagen.[11] During the Vietnam War, Cropper began to focus on political paintings. His piece "Faces of Apartheid" was used by the United Nations.[3][12] In the 1970's, Cropper artistic style began to focus more on meditative creation and still life. In a conversation with Swedish artist and friend Bengt O Björklund, he explained, "Light, texture and symbolism are important to me. I have become more meditative and once again approached the Japanese tradition and the values Zen stands for."[4] He spent the rest of his life working in an open studio with other artist in Sweden.[4] He died in Stockholm from cancer in 2012.[1] Further reading
