Curó Concept-Decoratif, en colaboración con la galería Holly Solomon (Nueva York, ... 1990), y organizó la exhibición Logo Non Logo, junto con el crítico francés Pierre Restany, en Thread Waxing Space (Nueva York, 1994).

In 1994, he organized “Logo Non Logo“ with French critic Pierre Restany at the Thread Waxing Space in New York, which later traveled to the Art Museum of the University of South Florida in Tampa.
