Agnes Martin’s Untitled 2 (from Paintings and Drawings: 1974–1990) (1991) continues her serene exploration of form, balance, and perception through minimalist means. This lithograph on translucent vellum parchment presents a delicate, hand-drawn grid—one of Martin’s signature motifs—symbolizing order, harmony, and introspection. Though unsigned and unnumbered, it was produced in an edition of 2,500 for her retrospective at the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam. The work invites close, contemplative viewing, evoking Martin’s deep belief in the spiritual potential of simplicity and repetition.

Agnes Martin (Canada/USA, 1912–2004) was a master of minimalist painting, celebrated for her meditative grids and subtle compositions. Her works, often exploring themes of harmony and spirituality, use delicate lines and muted palettes to evoke tranquility. Martin's influence extends across abstract art, blending precision with emotional depth.

Art is the concrete representation of our most subtle feelings.
- Agnes Martin

Agnes Martin is an American abstract painter. While some consider her work to be of a minimalist style, she prefered the term abstract. Martin drew much of her early work from the desert landscapes of New Mexico. These pieces include subdued colors, ranging only between black, white and brown. Aside from an influence of New Mexican landscapes, Agnes Martin also sought inspiration from Taoism. Her abstract paintings are often a commentary on her spiritual exploration of Eastern philosophies. As her inspiration from this personal and spiritual journey continued, Martin began introducing light pastel washes to her rectangular grids, which created a shimmering effect when in different lights. Martin's minimalist style continued to transform as her painting career flourished. Her signature style of a 72 x 72 grid shifted to 60 x 60 and she began to experiment more with colors. Followers of her works remarked this change upon viewing Untitled No 4, where she blended pencil lines and primary color washes with gesso. The importance of this piece showed Martin stemming away from symmetry as she began to mark the lines intuitively herself.

What is late modernism?

Late Modernism refers to the continuation and evolution of Modernist principles in art, architecture, and literature from the mid-20th century into the late 20th century. This movement maintains a focus on form, abstraction, and the rejection of traditional styles, but it often incorporates more complexity and ambiguity compared to early Modernism. Late Modernism explores themes such as alienation, identity, and the fragmentation of reality, reflecting the social and cultural shifts of the post-war period. It is seen in the works of architects like Louis Kahn and artists like Francis Bacon, who pushed the boundaries of Modernism while responding to the changing world around them.
