- Book Synopsis
- American artist Brice Marden (b. 1938) has had a profound impact on painting today. During his career there has been a sea change in art movements, yet Marden has unwaveringly adhered to modernist principles of abstraction. From his early monochromatic paintings of the 1960s and 1970s - sculpturally layered using oil paint and light-absorbing beeswax to explore subjectively the connections of colour to person, mood or idea - to themes inspired by Asian art and culture, composed of vivid and calligraphic loops and webs, Marden's deeply personal work incorporates multiple art historical and cultural inspirations.
- About The Author
- Eileen Costello has studied Marden's work closely over the past decade through numerous studio visits and discussions with the artist. She has contributed towards the production of a number of books and exhibition catalogues on the artist, and in 2003 initiated the catalogue raisonné of Marden's drawings and paintings. A specialist in post-war American and European art, she is also the Project Director for The Catalogue Raisonné of the Drawings of Jasper Johns, at The Menil Foundation, Houston.
