In the 1960s, he became involved with the Art Workers' Coalition, a radical artists group that harassed museums and once barricaded the Museum of Modern Art.

Calling himself Alan Suicide, he graduated from painting to light sculptures, many of which were constructed of electronic debris. He gained a residency at the OK Harris Gallery in SoHo where he continued to exhibit until 1975.Barbara Gladstone continued to show his work well into the 1980s.

    Yalan

    by: Vega

    Tam saat on da,köþe baþýnda...
    Çok safým ben;kimse yok ortada.
    Sen dedin,gel dedin kollarýma.
    Yalan.
    Düþürmeliydim seni en baþýnda.
    Kimbilir neler var yine aklýnda.
    Hani gitmeyecektin?
    Hani bitmeyecekti?
    Yalan.
    Kandýrma beni,dolandýrma beni,
    hiç zorlama.
    Dilendirme beni,kinlendirme beni.
    Zorlama,ne olursun.
    Yollar uzun,günler kýsa.
    Ýstidadým yok oyunlara.
    Bak çok sinirlendim,
    sen çok kibirlendin.
    Tahminimden önce geldik sona.
    Hani gitmeyecektin?
    Hani bitmeyecekti?
    Yalan.
