In 1933, he opened a school in New York, and a year later, he had established the Hans Hofmann School of Fine Arts in New York and another school in Massachusetts. By 1958, he had gained a huge reputation as a teacher and turned to painting full-time. Hofmann is best known for his paintings of solid color blocks on fragmented backgrounds.
