Mid-1960s

Tadasky’s first studio was a 2500 square-foot space that he rented in Lower Manhattan for $100/month (a huge rent for the time, that friends thought he was crazy to take on). He landed a scholarship from the Brooklyn Museum school that allowed him to work full time there, and this was where he first showed his work to Bill Seitz of MoMA for the “Responsive Eye” exhibition.  Later, after the building was condemned to become an apartment complex, he moved a few blocks further downtown.
