Published to accompany a 1992-93 exhibition held at the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York, this book deals with the full scope of Agnes Martin's art. It includes essays that place her work in the context of American and European 20th-century art and culture. Agnes Martin's paintings, constructions, and works on paper provide a link between the chromatic abstraction of artists such as Mark Rothko and Barnett Newman, her generational and ideological peers, and the Minimalist vocabulary of the 1960s. This book reproduces works made between 1957 and 1967, and better-known paintings and constructions created since 1974. A selection of Martin's writings reveals the spiritual philosophy that sustains her painting.ASIN: 0810968053VSKU: LFV.0810968053.ACondition: AcceptableAuthor/Artist:Haskell, Barbara|Profusely IllustratedBinding: HardcoverNote: Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.
