These compositions marked a transitional moment in his career. Marden has continued to make marble paintings since that time, describing his strategy as “taking an accident and turning it into a form.”\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eThis volume commemorates an exhibition of the artist’s marble paintings presented at Gagosian, \u003ci\u003eAthens\u003c\/i\u003e, in 2020—his first solo exhibition in Greece in four decades. To complement the marbles, Marden selected a small group of ink drawings on paper and a six-panel painting, \u003ci\u003eFree Painting 3\u003c\/i\u003e (2017). Together with full views and details of individual works, this beautifully illustrated volume features installation photography and a new essay by Dimitrios Antonitsis, in English and Greek, that considers the marble paintings in the context of the artist’s long connection to Hydra.\u003cbr\u003e ","brand":"Penguin Random House","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50972747858208,"sku":"9780847871117","price":50.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0836\/3661\/7504\/files\/9780847871117.jpg?v=1764178383","url":"https:\/\/creativebysanchez.com\/products\/brice-marden-marbles-and-drawings","provider":"Creative By Sanchez","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
