This is a re-envisioned, fresh look at Agnes Martin, the enigmatic,?influential, highly independent painter whose life (1912�C2004) spanned much of the twentieth century and extended into the?twenty-first. Martin��s abstract, deceptively simple paintings continue to resonate with contemporary artists and writers. In a series of?essays commissioned especially for this volume, the contributors write about Martin��s influence on their creative lives and work, and offer new interpretations that defy stereotyped notions about?Martin��s life. The result is a varied tapestry of voices, proving that Martin��s art still influences the contemporary world, and offering glimpses into modes of being and making that are still relevant nearly two decades after her death.
