Canadian-born Agnes Martin was one of the pre-eminent painters of
the second half of the twentieth century, whose work has had a
significant influence both on artists of her own time and for
subsequent generations. A contemporary of the abstract
expressionists though often identified with minimalism, Martin was
of the few woman artists who came to prominence in the
predominately masculine art world of the late 1950s and 1960s, and
became a particularly important role model for younger women
artists. This groundbreaking survey provides an overview of
Martin's career, from lesser-known early experimental works through
her striped and grided grey paintings and use of colour in various
formats, to a group of her final works that reintroduce bold forms.
A selection of drawings and watercolours is also included. With
essays by leading scholars that give a context for Martin's work -
her life, relationship with other artists, the influence of South-
Asian philosophy - alongside focused shorter pieces on particular
paintings, the book will appeal to art students, academics and all
those interested in abstract art. Presenting new research, and
beautifully designed, the book is also an opportunity to introduce
the life and work of Agnes Martin to those unfamiliar with her
oeuvre.
