I've had a casual interest in Agnes Martin for a while and am finally getting around to some serious reading about her. This exhibition catalogue is chock full of color and non-color plates and contains a significant chunk of the artist's own writings. The first two essays by Barbara Haskell and Anna Chave are lovely, eloquent illuminations of Martin's life and work, however Rosalind Krauss's essay is a very dense theoretical piece that did little to enhance my understanding or appreciation of the artist.
