About the Item

Agnes Martin Recent Paintings, 1977 Offset Lithograph invitation on Vellum 12 × 12 inches Edition of 2000 Unframed This early print is an exhibition invitation to the Pace Gallery's 1977 Agnes Martin show in New York. The image is a reproduction of a painting from the show, approved by Martin to be used on the invitation to the show. It is printed on a fragile, almost transparent vellum that captures the delicate power of the art. Less than 2000 of these invitations were printed, and few copies are known to have survived, making them very rare. These were not signed or numbered. This is a true collectors item - far more scarce than the invitations from the 1980s, 1990s and early aughts. The image is comprised of a grid of seven columns and seven rows. Each row is split by three additional parallel lines. Some ends of the lines dividing the columns and rows cross over the straight, even bordering lines, giving the work a quality that is both structured and free form. A wash of grey covers the entire composition, spilling out of the square in some areas. Despite her close association with the Minimalists, Martin described her work as Abstract Expressionist in line with Rothko's formal logic, “perceptual perfection,” and sparse compositions. She became recognized for her delicate use of pencil and sparing application of color.
