Agnes Martin (1912-2004) is another one of my favorite painters. While photographs can never capture the effect her work has
on the viewer, I wanted to share her work as I have been thinking about it
recently. I remember standing at
Dia Beacon looking at one of her paintings and being enveloped into the world
of subtle color. The noticeable traces
her hand left when creating grids and stripes adds to the subtle vibration of
her work. I find them to be very
powerful pieces- and they remind me about the power of simplicity when there is authenticity.
