Beschreibung

The only complete career retrospective of this visionary painter a classic, now available again in a handsome new binding

Agnes Martin s career spanned over seven decades. Though a major influence on Minimalist painters, Martin saw her own work more closely related to Abstract Expressionism, her paintings being meditations on innocence, beauty, happiness and love. This much-anticipated reissue of Arne Glimcher s highly-acclaimed book presents 130 of Martin s paintings and drawings alongside her previously unpublished writings and lecture notes. Glimcher s illuminating introduction, his personal memories of visits to Martin at her studio, and their correspondence throughout her career, reveal many insights into the artist s life and work.

Rezensionen

Martin is expressing our internal cartographies; emotional maps with structures of light and shade that elude rational explanation yet resonate more deeply than myriad figurative paintings. Financial Times

The power of her paintings is that of a sublime symphony: their mute melodies as meticulously wrought as they are effortlessly imbibed by the ear of the eye. The Art Newspaper

Praise for Agnes Martin: Painting, Writings, Remembrances:

A stunningly beautiful volume ... An affectionate biographical glimpse into Martin s life ... an apt tribute. Bookforum

A comprehensive exhibition between book boards. Thanks to this volume, the rigorous openness and delicate complexity in Martin s work can be better fathomed and appreciated. Art in America
