Brice Marden Cold Mountain etching and aquatint with dense black looping lines creating rhythmic abstract composition.

Brice Marden’s Cold Mountain (1991) is an intricate etching and aquatint that exemplifies his exploration of abstract gesture and line. The composition features a dense web of interwoven black lines, creating a rhythmic and almost calligraphic effect. Inspired by the poetry and philosophy of the Tang Dynasty poet Han Shan (known as "Cold Mountain"), Marden’s work reflects a meditative and introspective approach. The layered, looping lines suggest movement and energy, balanced by the monochromatic simplicity of the black ink on white paper. Measuring 70 x 90 cm, this limited-edition print captures the essence of Marden’s distinctive visual language, merging abstraction with poetic inspiration.

What is minimalism?

Minimalism is a style in music and visual arts characterized by pared-down designs and simplicity. It began in Western art after World War II, gaining prominence particularly in American visual arts. Minimalism draws heavily on aspects of modernism and is often viewed as a reaction against Abstract Expressionism, as well as a precursor to post-minimal art practices. Prominent minimalist artists include Agnes Martin, Donald Judd, Robert Morris, Frank Stella, and Dan Flavin.
