 Item — Box 145: [Barcode: 31858072457983]
Identifier: CC-51615-72714
Scope and Contents

Mary Martin (1907-1969) was one of the most distinguished and influential of a small group of English constructive artists of the 1950s and '60s. Her geometric paintings, sculptures, reliefs and drawings explore colour, line and form as basic formal elements. This multiple was purchased from her husband, Kenneth Martin. According to Stephen Bury in Artist's Multiples 2001, this was an unlimited edition. However, it is doubtful that more than 100 to 200 copies were actually made. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.

 Item
Identifier: CC-39677-41636
Scope and Contents

The exhibition was curated by Maurice Tuchman and Stephanie Barron. This catalogue contains seventeen essays that provide a radical rethinking of abstraction with special attention to the pioneers of nonrepresentational art. The exhibition focuses on what the artist intended his painting to mean rather than how it looked. " By offering clues to the now-hidden meanings of abstract art, it helps make the esoteric accessible and the obscure visible, illuminating not only the art but also the spiritual beliefs that nourished it." -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
