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.' More than 130 of these works can be found in this book. Agnes Martin: Paintings, Writings, Remembrances is the first and only complete career retrospective publication of the visionary painter. This important and beautiful book brings together 130 of Martin's paintings and drawings, with her previously unpublished writings and lecture notes, which vividly illuminate her art. Letters and facsimiles are reprinted in Martin's own hand, and cut to notebook size, adding an element of intimacy for the reader. With the Pace Gallery founder, Arne Glimcher's illuminating introduction, his personal remembrances of visits to Martin at her studio, and their correspondence throughout her career, reveal much about the artist's life and work.

Product Description 
The only complete career retrospective of this visionary painter, including all her most iconic works, which are prized for their exquisite visual poetry, together with personal letters and facsimiles, reprinted in Martin’s own hand, adding intimacy to this classic book 
Agnes Martin’s career spanned over seven decades, with a profile that has skyrocketed since the 2015-17 major exhibition at Tate Modern, London that travelled globally to great acclaim. 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 Martin’s exhibition manager and close friend Arne Glimcher’s highly-acclaimed book presents 130 of her paintings and drawings alongside her previously unpublished writings and lecture notes.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.\nReview 
"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 
"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

50 Years at Pace

Art Data Ltd

"Adventures in Art" is a magisterial volume that documents the exhibitions at Pace Gallery in New York. One of the handful of most important American galleries over the past 40 years, the history of Pace is virtually the history of art in America since World War II, and this book, with over 700 color images in its nearly 700 pages, shows why. From the classic Mondrian show "The Salon of Mme. B," which reconstructed his unrealized architectural project, to the "Je suis le cahier" show of Picasso's unpublished sketchbooks, Pace has always shown artists and works in ways that help redefine their importance and suggest new ways of seeing. Arne Glimcher, founder of Pace Gallery, has not only been adept at spotting trends in art, but in encouraging new visions, and defining movements as well. Among the artists with whom he has had a close and enduring relationship are Robert Irwin, Loiuse Nevelson, Chuck Close, Donald Judd, Jean Dubuffet, and many others whose exhibitions are documented in "Adventures in Art". Along with the visual documentation, the book includes an introduction by art scholar Barbara Rose, an essay by Arne Glimcher himself, and chronological lists of the exhibitions and publications that have defined Pace Gallery since the early 1960s. 
"I'm interested in giving a new perspective to the span of an artist's work by extending the public's perception of an entire oeuvre. . .I show art that astonishes me." Arne Glimcher 
Artists include: Larry Bell, Louise Nevelson, Robert Irwin, Jean Dubuffet, Piet Mondrian, Agnes Martin, Jim Dine, Lee Krasner, Chuck Close, Brice Marden, Mark Rothko, Joseph Cornell, Barnett Newman, Dan Flavin, Robert Ryman, Claes Oldenburg and many others.
