Agnes Martin

BEACON, NEW YORK.- The fifth and final installment in an ongoing series of exhibitions devoted to Agnes Martin’s work, “Homage to [a] Life: Paintings 1990–2004,” will be on view at Dia:Beacon, Riggio Galleries, through November 26, 2007. Organized by Dia Art Foundation, this presentation of some twenty paintings produced during the last decade of Martin’s career culminates a career-long survey. Dia’s retrospective began in May 2004 with “…going forward into unknown territory…,” which featured works from 1957 to 1967, when Martin lived and worked in New York City. The second installation, “…unknown territory…,” highlighted paintings from the mid-1960s. “To The Islands,” the third presentation in the series, explored the period from 1974 through 1979, when Martin resumed painting after a seven-year hiatus. The fourth installment, “A Field of Vision,” focused on her practice during the 1980s. Lire la suite http://www.artdaily.com/section/news/index.asp?int_sec=2&int_new=19875
