At the end of 1957, Agnes Martin rented a loft at 27 Coenties Slip for forty-five dollars a month, inaugurating one of the most experimental periods in her long career. Christina Rosenberger, author of Drawing the Line: The Early Work of Agnes Martin, examines the arc of Martin’s early career, her productive confrontations with artists such as Ellsworth Kelly, Robert Indiana and Lenore Tawney, and the vibrant artistic networks that developed between California, New Mexico, and New York in the post-war period.

she was in the end at the end someone who had nothing to say but it took her years to realize it. 1st had to peel back the phony dross and influences she absorbed in art classes and cities, in fine, a simple painter finally realised -- actually born --- in her last decade....I dont think the critics understand this

their voices are wobbling and they keep looking down. maybe educators shouldn’t share such puritan views of art so people could use it at the self-expression that it was intended to be as opposed to some sort of scale of comparison to their peers. good information regardless, that’s my only critique, no offense intended. it just felt more like some kind of mla format performance of nothing but citations.
