Frank Stella est né en 1936 à Malden, Massachusetts. Après avoir fréquenté le lycée de la Phillips Academy d'Andover, dans le Massachusetts, il est allé à l'université de Princeton, où il a peint et s'est spécialisé en histoire. Les premières visites dans les galeries d'art de New York se révéleront être une influence sur son développement artistique. Stella a déménagé à New York en 1958 après avoir obtenu son diplôme. L'art de Stella était reconnu pour ses innovations avant l'âge de vingt-cinq ans. En 1959, plusieurs de ses peintures ont été incluses dans Three Young Americans au Allen Memorial Art Museum de l'Oberlin College, ainsi que dans Sixteen Americans au Museum of Modern Art de New York (1959-1960). Stella a rejoint l'écurie d'artistes du marchand Leo Castelli en 1959. Dans ses premières séries, y compris les Black Paintings (1958–60), les Aluminum Paintings (1960) et les Copper Paintings (1960–61), Stella a mis de côté l'espace illusionniste pour la physicalité de la surface plane et s'écarte de la toile traditionnelle de forme rectangulaire.

Stella a épousé Barbara Rose, une critique d'art bien connue, en 1961. Les toiles Irregular Polygon de Stella (1965-1967) et la série Protractor (1967-1971) ont encore élargi le concept de la toile en forme. Stella a commencé son engagement prolongé avec la gravure au milieu des années 1960, travaillant d'abord avec le maître imprimeur Kenneth Tyler chez Gemini G.E.L. En 1967, Stella a conçu le décor et les costumes de Scramble, une pièce de danse de Merce Cunningham. Le Museum of Modern Art de New York a présenté une rétrospective de l'œuvre de Stella en 1970. Au cours de la décennie suivante, Stella a introduit le relief dans son art, qu'il a appelé la peinture «maximaliste» pour ses qualités sculpturales. Ironiquement, les peintures qui l'avaient rendu célèbre avant 1960 avaient éliminé toute cette profondeur. Après avoir introduit le bois et d'autres matériaux dans la série Village polonais (1970-1973), réalisée en haut-relief, il commence à utiliser l'aluminium comme support principal de ses peintures. Au fur et à mesure que les années 1970 et 1980 avançaient, celles-ci sont devenues plus élaborées et exubérantes. En effet, son minimalisme antérieur est devenu baroque, marqué par des formes courbes, des couleurs DayGlo et des coups de pinceau gribouillés. De même, ses estampes de ces décennies combinaient diverses techniques de gravure et de dessin.

En 1973, il fait installer un studio d'impression dans sa maison new-yorkaise. Du milieu des années 1980 au milieu des années 1990, Stella a créé un vaste corpus d'œuvres qui répondaient de manière générale au Moby Dick d'Herman Melville. Pendant ce temps, le relief de plus en plus profond des peintures de Stella a cédé la place à une tridimensionnalité complète, avec des formes sculpturales dérivées de cônes, de piliers, de courbes françaises, de vagues et d'éléments architecturaux décoratifs. Pour créer ces œuvres, l'artiste a utilisé des collages ou des maquettes qui ont ensuite été agrandies et recréées avec l'aide d'assistants, de coupeurs de métaux industriels et de technologies numériques. Dans les années 1990, Stella a commencé à faire de la sculpture autoportante pour les espaces publics et à développer des projets architecturaux. En 1992-1993, par exemple, il a créé tout le schéma décoratif du Princess of Wales Theatre de Toronto, qui comprend une murale de 10 000 pieds carrés. Sa proposition de 1993 pour une kunsthalle (centre des arts) et un jardin à Dresde ne s'est pas concrétisée. Son bandshell en aluminium, inspiré d'un chapeau pliant du Brésil, a été construit au centre-ville de Miami en 1999.

En 2001, une sculpture monumentale de Stella a été installée à l'extérieur de la National Gallery of Art de Washington, D.C. Le travail de Stella a été inclus dans plusieurs expositions importantes qui ont défini l'art des années 1960, parmi lesquelles The Shaped Canvas (1964-1965) du Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum et Systemic Peinture (1966). Son art a fait l'objet de plusieurs rétrospectives aux États-Unis, en Europe et au Japon. Parmi les nombreux honneurs qu'il a reçus figurait une invitation de l'Université de Harvard à donner les conférences Charles Eliot Norton en 1983-1984. Appelant à un rajeunissement de l'abstraction en atteignant la profondeur de la peinture baroque, ces six conférences ont été publiées par Harvard University Press en 1986.

L'artiste continue de vivre et de travailler à New York.
